Jim, as you said earlier, shooting RAW allows you the luxury of tweaking at the conversion stage. However, you should be aware, that using the Color Temperature to tweak in Canon's SDK has a major drawback. It can not compensate in the green/magenta spectrum. So under fluorescent lighting or a foliage canopy, for example, setting the CT to, say 4400K, will not necessarily deal with the green caste. This is addressed in Capture 1 and Adobe Camera Raw, I believe. Thus, I find CWB majorly useful. I also agree that AWB does quite well, often.
