The "no auto-attack" means exactly what you think it means, but it applies only to the new Monk class. And it's not set in stone yet, either. We'll see how it feels when it gets to beta (if it even gets that far). I suspect it'll feel kind of like playing a rogue: lots of keymashing.
I avoid the forums for the same reasons I avoid General and Trade chat, and for the same reason that I'm on an RP realm instead of a normal realm: so many jackasses.
As for the wand costumes, you might consider asking in guild chat if anyone has extra wands they could zap you with. If the high-level people are doing all the candy buckets (as many of my guildmates are), they'll probably end up with tons of the durned things. :-)
The Magic Broom will probably go away once Hallow's End is over, so I wouldn't actually buy it if I were you. (There's some disagreement about this statement in my own guild. Historically, items that are labeled with "Requires [holiday]" only exist through the end of that holiday, and there haven't been any blue posts on the forums to the contrary, so I'm just assuming that's the way this is going to work, too.)
You should be able to get enough tricky treats for the kitteh and the wicker man by doing all the buckets (Eastern Kingdoms, Kalimdor, Outland, Northrend, and Cata), though. You might need to do the horseman daily dungeon a few times (accessible at 84), but generally just the buckets will net you at least 300 candies.
Don't forget to do the quest chain that gets you the creepy crate pet. It eats critters!
ETA: Oh, and on the subject of being PvP flagged.... Sometimes there are quests that flag you with no warning. I don't know anything about the new Dustwallow quests, so I couldn't talk specifics there, but I hate getting involuntarily flagged. Rawr!
