Unearthed Arcana has a generic class variant that would be more supportive of the type of character building you seem to enjoy. Just needs some adaptation.

If the player actually wants to play as a druid with monk training, that would also include the fact that they got that training and the necessary mindset to complete it. I'm not against it at all. I'm against the bleaching of what classes represent just because a player wants to powergame.
The game explicitly includes rules to have multiple character classes, and many prestige classes require characters that have taken levels in multiple classes.

The only issues I'd have with a character with multiple classes is either legality - ie, some classes don't work together because of alignment requirements, or with power level, ie the combination is too powerful compared to what everyone else is doing. I couldn't imagine saying a combination of classes is "wrong" simply because I don't think they belong together.
