Swordsman Archive

So, I was reading the extensive notes on the CU found on the main page, and I read that swordsman must pick up the 1-handed branch of the brawler tree. While this seems like a semi-waste to me (even if I get to use a couple weak 1-handed specials) I was just curious about something... Anyone think that the game will give us a "grace period" to drop some skills and pick up the 1-handed line or do you think masters will be just "given" the line, or anyone have any other ideas on what they will do?
