What size hex sockets will I need beside 10 and 14mm?
You'll need 8, 6, and 4 (and maybe 5).
What size sockets are needed for wheel removals?
I just use a big crescent wrench to get the rear axle off. If you have the above set of hex wrenches, you're set for the front wheel.
Who makes a decent stand (and where do you get them) for the front? I want to be able to do fork removals.
I just bought a set of Pitbull stands from http://www.ca-cycleworks.com/ and I highly recommend them if you want the best. I had a Lockhart-Phillips rear stand before, but I didn't completely trust it. The Pitbull is absolutely solid. I bought the "Newfront Stand" for the front, even though it's not listed on the California Cycleworks site.
If you're not the adventurous sort when it comes to things like fork removal, I wrote down the steps here: http://www.ducatimonster.org/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=tech;action=display;num=1063487898
