You are correct about rune being a bis trinket pre-ICC however. The 2nd trinket I prefer from heroic PoS off the last boss.
Spirit is okay but not a stat I'd value more than crit however.
I don't expect you or others to agree with my stat preference but it's what I've observed over the years. Pokemon / Sixtyninee has experimented with a haste build and ended going back to the haste / crit balance I originally recommended.
Just my 2 cents.
