Opening from stealth as a combat rogue isn't really a big deal. Only use it to get closer to the boss.
Combat can do some insane burst damage. And if the tank is having trouble on starting threat, you can still give them a boost with ToTT, Blade Flurry and Killing Spree. Just remember the threat boost is temperary and be prepared to hit Vanish if said tank hasn't made up the threat lead.
Also, I'd personally reforge one more item for the last of your expertise or at least switch out a gem. Being a little over the expertise cap IMO, is better then being a small amount below it.

Unless it lands you a hair above the cap.

Theorycrafting runs directly in the face of your opinion.
Run your gear through shadowcraft and you will see that it will NEVER put you over the expertise cap
.
Reason?
Any amount of expertise over the cap is worthless.
Why?
Save certain fights, you are always behind the boss where you can't be parried...therefore you only need enough exp to push dodge of the table.
So being a hair below the cap it is perfectly acceptable if that's the optimal reforge for the gear you have on. Again, use shadowcraft, rawr, or some equivalent to do the permutations for you and indicate the best way to reforge.
I'm well aware of all this. With the cap being 781 rating with no racials, I beleive you can be below the cap by at least 20-30 rating and get away with it. But, again,
personally
, I'd rather be at least that over the cap if given the choice to be above OR below the cap for the simple fact of both RNG gods and Murphy's Law.
Don't get me wrong, Theorycrafting is great. But you can't always run everything by numbers.
