"He cannot, however, use flails for backstabbing, which makes this a questionable choice, especially if using 3E sneak attack rules."

I'm not sure why this is mentioned. BG doesn't use 3E rules, and backstabs are generally done with the main-hand weapon which means you could just off-hand DoE and have his main-hand weapon be a backstab-suitable weapon. Or switch after the initial backstab - get one hit in with (e.g.) Staff of the Ram then switch weapons for the follow-up attacks.
