The last errata on sneak attack makes it read "... and hit with a light blade, the crossbow, or a sling, the attack deals extra damage." Which seems to me to be saying fairly clearly that it is intended by RAW to work only when using the weapon as a weapon, otherwise wouldn't it say "... and hit with an attack using a light blade...".Granted it is definitely ambiguous. I wouldn't necessarily take anything Character Builder does as indicating definitively what the official rules are either, the rogue weapon talent +1 for warlock attacks is also rather ambiguous. By analogy with proficiency bonuses you can easily argue it shouldn't be granted.Of course it is a cool build and all, I like it, so I'd be inclined to go with the weapon talent giving a +1. Not so sure about the sneak attack though. That could be a very nasty one. Granted rogues can sneak attack with thrown weapons already, but warlock powers can be quite a bit more potent than a thrown dagger, in general.</blockquote>
