I think SK/necro is workable - you'll just have to think outside the box.

Think about how a necro charm-kills - charm a pet and have it kill another mob, right? Now they can do the same, using the "rooted mobs attack the closest target" mechanic to focus damage on the charmed pet. This will take a little bit of work, pulling the pet on top of the target mob by spamming the "pet back off" button. The SK will do minimal DPS compared to a rogue or monk, sure, but he will still be an effective puller and still be able to tank most stuff well enough if there's no suitable charm targets around.

And of course, there's always fear-kiting, if outdoors (or indoors if there's enough room), for both undead and normal mobs. With both classes getting FD eventually, you can experiment a lot without too much fear of dying.
