This is really very cool. I live in Orlando and have toyed with the idea of statting up the city for awhile now. And, ugh, actually playing the DFRPG.

One note, in case you are interested: there is an occult bookstore here. Well, sort of; it's a very New Age/Wiccan store, that has a section for books, but is mostly full of charms, incense, rocks and crystals, that kind of stuff. It's called Avalon, located just outside of Orlando proper, surrounded on all sides various Asian stores and restaurants. Perhaps it's where all the local talent go for their spell supplies?

Also,  have you considered including Walt Disney, himself? I can't remember which novel, but Harry mentions in one that he imagines that the Courts probably had some influence on the kinds of stories produced by the company. And Walt is rumored to be frozen in Cinderella's Castle in the Magic Kingdom. Perhaps he still is kicking after all... as a Sidhe Lord, whose still pulls the strings of his company from his throne in the Nevernever.

Those are just thoughts that I toyed around with and might appeal to you. But yours are so fantastic, I might end up using some if I ever do get around to playing this. Unless that's looked down upon, in which case I totally won't.

In OW91, a note from Bob said "The 'werewolf spell' is a single complex form of ritual thaumaturgy boiled down and refined into an evocation requiring only an effort of will." Billy dissents from this viewpoint. I was just wondering if this is actually feasible, and if so, how would it be represented in game terms? Would you just purchase the beast change power in addition to thaumaturgy? Can this be done with any thaumaturgical effect?
