The Monk and Combat Stamina

Combat Stamina is usually associated with Fighters, but has anyone done an analysis on how it can help other martial classes, specifically the Monk?

In my campaign I made Combat Stamina something that that "pure mundanes" (rogues, ninjas, etc.) could buy at Level 3 and the less powerful martials (fighter, monk, samurai, slayer, swashbuckler... basically, any martial other than a paladin, ranger, or barbarian) got for free.

What I noticed is that it helps Monks... a LOT. Simply being able to bypass INT requirements is a HUGE boon, but it does make almost every feat a Monk needs MUCH better, either lowering costs to use them, negating penalties, allowing you to use your abilities AFTER the roll, etc..

Basically, it seems like a nice fix for the martials as a whole, not just the Fighter. Anyone else using Combat Stamina with the other martials with success?
