Hm... I think the only issue would be warrior in classo. Everything else looks pretty solid. Here's what I can tell you about having warrior 4th...
Pros: Excellent combination of skills with Monk. Nice equipment options by level 20 warrior.
Cons: Warrior gets no mana and a bare minimum (~10) hps for quad.
While there's no class that picks up more hps for quad, you're only out about 6 for picking any other class. You can pick up a lot of mana by putting any caster class quad. Having lots of mana is always useful for winds and restores if nothing else. This is why it's not common practice to put warrior, thief or monk quad.
Warrior and monk are fabulous classes to have together though. Their skills blend very nicely and as 13 said, the high number of attacks, flurry, strike, winds, etc will make him quite powerful. As a monk prime, you'll also have a good hit percentage so you'll be effective at dishing out the melee damage. Since the higher level warrior skills like deathblow aren't useful barehanded, you'll pick up most the benefit of the warrior skills early enough to use them... the most notable exception being triple attack.
Having wariror 4th won't help you too much in terms of equipment. Mostly because there's not a massive difference between SMo and EWa equipment. But with improved damage reduction and good hand damage, you should be fine either way.
That's my impression anyway.
Happy hunting.
