I don't think you want to be strict with W3C 508.  They requires most
good ones but few are unnecessary to me.  I do often check against it
since it's a free service, but I am much more selective on the result.

Ur, no.  It won't work especially against Mozilla flavors.  DW has piles
of bugs.  In fact, that is all about these applications.  It is much
safer to hand-code to be compatible across multi-platform.  You can't
trust let these application does coding for you.  This is all the same
for building any application.

I do fair amount of web dev (don't check my site which is the last I give
attention so it's a mess, garbage accumulation since 1997 :) and I always
check against:

Win IE5, IE6, NS4.7, NS7
Mac IE, NS, Firefox
Linux Mozilla, Konqueror
