Also, one minor quibble: WDSC uses the Eclipse SWT for its user interface,
so it will never be "pure Java". Unlike Swing, which is Java's standard UI,
SWT requires a native library on every platform, and so there are sometimes
compatibility issues. For example, SWT does not work well at all with
64-bit Windows.

True ... but there's a SWT implementation available for most popular
platforms (OSX included).

I'm very surprised that it doesn't work well with 64 bit Windows.
