I'm a WDSC power user, and first-line support for the WDSC developers in my company. I've learnt a lot in a small amount of time, including writing small WDSC plug-ins, and I'm willing to share that knowledge if I can.
We use WDSC v7 to create a Sun Java-based GUI using iSeries DB/RPGLE objects, and use Softlanding's Turnover and RSE Extensions, IBM Rational's ClearQuest, QuantumDB and a couple of my own plug-ins to help. I built a "silent install" using the IBM Package Utility and this is how the developers install WDSCv7 when (if) they need it.
The best part of WDSC is Service Entry Points for debugging, but I'm also very happy with the Outline view as an amazing help when it comes to investigating "old" iSeries ILE source.
