It would be a way for monks to actually use their Ki points but what about characters using that feat who also don't have monk levels?
Tough nuts for them. They'd be stuck with the nerf. IMHO, it was the dippers who where raising the issues.

Bringing back the Gravewalker Witch would be nice - my flagship character started out as one, then they were banned just as he reached 3rd-level and was about to be able to use his Spell Poppet to zap people with touch attacks from a distance!
I can understand why they decided to prohibit the Master Summoner after its initially being legal, but I'm presently playing one (my compatriots being a Brawler, Rogue, Warpriest, and Archaeologist) in a special "Super-Module" that permits us to briefly play with Society-illegal options and apply a MASSIVE reward to a Pathfinder Society character once those characters ride off into the sunset, and I've found that it's certainly powerful, but not broken.
I'd also liberalize the summon monster/summon nature's ally spell lists both for expanded options and fewer restrictions on the expanded options already introduced (such as their only being available to worshipers of certain deities).
Finally, it would be nice if they could permit some sanctioned 3rd-party material that expanded players' options while remaining true to the Golarion campaign setting (Super Genius Games' Advanced Options line, for example, would be a good candidate).
I also like the idea previously alluded to of expanding ways by which players could receive strange and interesting Boons in ways other than attending Conventions (Nota Bene: There is someone out there with a Boon that enables him to play the one and only Assassin in all of Pathfinder Society - I met him exactly once; he doesn't live anywhere near where I do, he was in the area for a brief business trip or something; he said he was personally contacted by Mike Brock and told something along the lines of "this Boon is unique; nobody else has one, and we're not doing it again;" in case you're wondering, he still doesn't get to play an Evil character, the Boon reduces the prestige class's normally-prohibitive entry requirements to merely its skill prerequisites). In the case of "Race" Boons, another idea could be to require a player possess only one such Boon for a given race before being permitted to make as many different characters of that race as they wished (or compromise by permitting "up to X characters of this race per Boon," and/or "if one of these characters permanently dies, you may make another level 1 character of that race").
