That explains why I couldn't see what they were talking about.  I'm on 
5.1.2.1 version.

5.1.2 only installs one icon, although the second EXE is still on your 
drive. I thought 5.1.0 was the same and that only 5.0 installed multiple 
icons?  The EXE's themselves are just simple launchers,  I believe it is 
the parm passed to the EXE that really controls it, although perhaps in 
the absence of the parm, the defaults change?  The parm is  -feature 
com.ibm.wdsclient.  This tells Eclipse the "branding" feature.  I am not 
sure why the WDSC plugins wouldn't still be available, but you are correct 

that the default perspective is part of the branding and will change.

As for the workspace, you normally get an initial dialog that lets you 
choose your workspace.  The defaults will be different, but you should be 
able to select the same one.  That being said, if the WDSC plugins really 
are not available, you would get errors if you tried to use the same 
workspace.

I keep all of my workspaces under C:\worskspaces.

With 5.1.2, I do not have a second icon.  If I launch the other EXE 
directly, I get the alternate branding, however, I can still open and use 
the RSE perspective.  That is how I recall it working on previous versions 

as well.
