Firstly, great idea for a build. For someone who loves playing a mesmer this is awesome.

Secondly, and I hate to burst anyones bubble, if it really works the way this build suggests, you can be sure Anet is gonna nerf the hell out of it as quick as you can blink.

For those of you having trouble understand IW just think of it as a hex like spiteful spirit except its an enchant on you and instead of doing damage when the enemy does something it does damage when you attack.

Its really a moot point, however, because IW is close to being one of the most sucky elite skills in the game. The only place you can even use IW with a straight face is random arenas and even then its just for kicks. IW needs a major revamp before its worthy of its elite status. Even if this build works as you guys think it will IW will still be good for little more than a chuckle in randoms.

Daggers are 1.33 with 2% chance of double strike per rank in Dagger Mastery.

Phoebe's got it. Daggers are 1.33, just like swords and axes, but if you average in the double strikes it CAN get much faster (up to 0.99 with 16 DM :: http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Daggers). Your dagger mastey won't be maxed though, so it won't be THAT much faster... I'd go with sword and a focus like Deeproot's Sorrow (+1 20%, 20% recharge on illusion) for the energy, similar attack rate, and focus skill bonus.
