Just wanted to say that we have used Dowser in a recent paper 
[J. Biol. Chem. 279, 2147-2158 (2004)] to insert water into the pore
of Bacterio Rhodopsin. In order to get any water at all inside, we had
to reduce the energy treshold, which is hardcoded in the program, from
10 to 2.5 kcal/mol. When we did this, however, some of the crystal
waters were reproduced lending credibility to the method.
