2) You don't have enough information to go on to make that change,
unless you have dicussed this with Walter. Maybe he doesn't want to
recognize the old DWT as "standard" anymore, if it isn't actively
developed. Maybe neither library is "standard".

Maybe you're right. But if Walter hasn't stripped Phobos DWT of its
'standard' title, I think technically it still applies. But it might be
more practical to consider neither to be.
Even though it technically still appears to be the declared standard
GUI, it might be a bad idea to actually label it standard in a wiki. The
project is dead. Guess why there has been another approach to this by
other people.
I guess what's really needed is for both DWTs to be maintained in
parallel. Or maybe merge into one DWT that's versioned for the two. Who
has experience of writing dual-mode libraries like this? (SDWF is
dual-mode for D1 and D2; I'm guessing it could further be made
triple-mode for Tango as well. Even quadruple-mode once we have a Tango
for D2. Anyone fancy trying it?)
I’m not sure this is technically feasable for such a big codebase.
