I switched to Bazooka several years ago and haven't had any problems with it. I've also had several users of my LDB plugins report problems with Docking Station not supporting some LDB properties correctly or at all, so you're not alone.
On a mostly-unrelated note, please don't put prefixes like "MEC" in front of your addon names where they're going to be displayed in alphabetical lists, such as TOC Title fields and LDB object names. If your addon is called "Warforged Seals" then users will expect to find it in the "W" section of these lists, not the "M" section. Likewise, if you are using color codes in your TOC title, that also screws up alphabetizing, and makes the addon list look like a clown's makeup tray, so don't do it. If you
really feel the need to stick your name/initials/whatever in the title, put them at the end so users don't have to read every single item in the list when looking for your addon.
