We're talking about integration ... most (if not all) of the major vendors have integration with WDSC, RDi, & RDp.  I think some of the not so major vendors are lagging in that area.

It tends to be easier to integration with PDM ... as you can just provide some user defined options that invoke native commands.

Integrating with GUI's is much harder (and is more of a moving target than PDM).
