This is a great kit to dual to a mage, better than a Kensai overall (just ask Saemon).
I'd put lock picking high on my list along with detect trap (don't want to be wasting spells on either of these tasks).
As you go higher in level consider:
Hide in the shadows is still worthwhile (75 points worth) for getting that 1st hit (or stealing the wepons off that person 1st) or for scouting ahead. Figure 50 points for move silently.
I'd only consider trap point expenditure for TOB and high Thief level special abilities (or if you go the bounty hunter route).
Detect illusion helps to detect traps similar to the way move silently helps hide in the shadows so points should be spent here w/ detect traps, but to a much lesser degree.
