Add a Wraithguard stand with a Warlock in it to give you a Psyker and keep

A good detachment.

Maybe add some Wave Serpents to get them across the Battlefield unmolested
by Artillery, etc. . . I have a similar detachment to this.

No, you need the Fire Prism for that, but with Eldar, you are probably
better off using Nightwings to stop enemy aircraft, unless your opponent
goes for Thunderhawks in a big way, where the Fire Prisms are excellent.

Depends on your point of view. This IS how Eldar get assault troops, and if
you have none or at least very few elsewhere in the army, then I guess there
is some justification for it. It would make sense to put all your rock-hard
assault guys in just one place.

It is a little difficult to imagine! But, for convienence sake, I would say
yes.
As an aside, in a 1000 pt game, I would give some thought to including a
Revenant or even a Phantom. Eldar Titans are good value for points, and
they always look the part in any Eldar War Host!
