From having a ranger main and a Rogue alt, sneaky was kind of like the 'longshot' in that when attacking mobs, youre likely to really get one good use of it. I do LOVE sneaky though, but use it exclusively with my boss build. I would think quick strike might be better in that, like someone mentioned, insta cast and no restrictions in that you can just spam it on mobs. Same thing with assasinate, I love having it for bosses, but I dont use it for lvln build as you only get one use out of it.
However, if you tend to lvl in groups and find yourself being able to avoid holding aggro, I would say use sneaky. But if that was the case you would also have to call into question the usefulness of riposte as it is only effective when being attacked. Things to think about. These are just my experiences, plus I am a phony rogue :p ranger ftw!

with a pierce lure my sneaky will do often 7-10k damage on the mobs i train on yet riposte does 5k BUT riposte works 3 times so ripose actually is doing 15k dmg
