Maybe I'm missing something but I don't see the value of enabling WDS. A
client is a client, be it a Wifi card, USB card, or Wireless Ethernet
adapter.

Keep it simple.

The idea I had in mind was if you used a MT in station-wds mode to
bridge
the customer's laptop.  Several properties we have offer bridges so that
people with no wireless cards or those who have problems with them can
get
online.
