Shadow knights, maybe. They do have the ability to do important things; they can FD tag, and tank trash or kunark dragons with snap aggro, or pet fd duel a rogue for pulls. But everything I have wanted them to do was better done by a paladin, warrior, necro or monk, so I think this might be the only class I haven't explicitly asked for someone to log onto, just used for roles where a specialist wasn't available.

You definitely don't need an SK for anything, but I will say there are 2 zones I prefer being on my SK to my Monk—Plane of Fear and ST. In PoF not needing to burn through wand charges is great, as there is often a lot of tagging (e.g. pets). Your tags being much stronger than wands is super nice as well. As a bonus you can tank everything in the zone if necessary. For CT, Monk is slightly more convenient for creeping up with sneak, but not necessary. For ST now that nothing sees invis, CoS is handy (though you can use just rings) and primal + arrow can edge out a wand if timed properly. Disc isn't super useful here, but always useful if you eff it up.
If you have the expendables to dump, monk is generally just better, but it can be a lot manage, esp for aggro clickies. All in all, SK is a nice tagger when you want to avoid recharge quest.
