On a serious note, the correct answer is people gem differently and there will never be a true rule of thumb because of haste breakpoints, fights, etc. Multi dot fights, Pure Haste til 4750 then all pure Mastery is good for yellow. Int + whatever in the red slots. Hit + whatever in the blue slots. Single target fights (Elegon, Garalon, etc.) want to stack haste. Pure Haste in yellow. Int + Haste in red. Hit + Haste in blue.
Honestly, simming takes 5 minutes and will give you YOUR personalized stat weights which will make sense for your gear levels. Or just open your toon in askmrrobot.com and it'll do all your gems/reforges for you.
