I only recently joined this mailing list, so I wasn't privy to those
conversations. I can't say that I am aware of any problems with
CMSIS-DAP that would prevent it from being suitable for real usage. I,
personally, used two implementations: one from Keil(can be flashed on
KL26Z Freedom boards) and the one found in Atmel's devkits(called
EDBG) and didn't have any problems.

The only standalone SWD adapter that I had access to at the time when
I was developing initial flashing driver for nRF51 was ST-Link v2, so
that was what I used for that purpose. Usually nRF51 kits/samples come
with Segger J-Link Lite and there were number of patches floating
around that should add SWD support for the driver(Those patches didn't
work for me, but that may be because I was using OSX)

I have an irrational dislike/distrust of all things FTDI so I don't
use it very often. Sorry I can't be on much help here.
