For all the talk of getting rid of the "build" mentality, the feats in the PHB pretty much put it back in. You've got to look ahead to what feats you're going to take and plan your ability score allocations to match. Like Wizards will want a 13 Cha (a stat they have no other use for) by the paragon? or epic tier to get that -2 save feat.
In some areas, the prereqs are a good thing. The armor feats mainly require Str & Con, meaning that yes you can make an armored wizard but you need to take hits elsewhere to get that. In other areas, they seem like a ham-handed method to keep people from dumping certain stats.
