There are many ways to get weaponmaster in 4e. There are various psionic options where you have a sentinent sword (like it is extension of your soul), a monk path where sword is like you soul etc.
A fighter also have various build options, so can a swordmage become "weapon of sword and magic". I did write a big post earlier about how swordmage is different from wizard using sword(forgot name). Basically one uses sword techniques and magic, while other uses oly the magic which enhances sword and sword techniques.
So while one swordmage may use fireball and sword, other mage will only use spell like "keen sword" "lightning edge(on the sword)" "fire sword" "icesword" "keen edge" etc.
Pure fighter also has a weaponmaster option.
Kensai is a paragon path for any fighter.
You get bonus to damage rolls, attack rolls for a particular weapon.
Next paragon is swordmaster
This one is like, blade is extension of my body. It is different from kensai and is more attack oriented.
Next is Polearm Master
This one is like swordmaster but with polearm and is based on reach (hitting opponent at a distance)
Next is Rakehell Duelist
I did a story on it before. Basically someone who can duel one on one with anybody but is bad at 1 to many fights.
There can be more I forgot, but thematically there are many many kinds of weapon master - including those who use psion power/monk power etc.

I think druids can let spirits manifest in them in 4e - so you are not a true shapeshifter exactly, but somewhat like them (by letting the spirits manifest).
Shifters is a race btw, so you can also play a werewolf druid.
I'd poo in my hand if Monks get added. I have a friend who loves playing Monks in video games and takes Martial Arts himself and from what I can see Monks are either just not in the game or very poorly done.

I made some original lore about werebears and druids that would result in an Ursa-kin race evolving into a playable race when I ran my 2E game about 15 years ago. In some villages that accommodated them, you could find armor and clothes, which I called Bear-wear (TM). XD
I'd like to see a Shamanic class... and the Lizard Man race to go with it so I can run around calling everyone "Warm Bloods". Most game developers seem to focus on the "Humanoid" races but other races like the Lizard Men and other Anthros are usually ignored if not forgotten altogether.

Otherwise; Barbarian, Warlock, Druid, Runepriest or Shaman would be cool as well.
