I'm using http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/witch-doctor#aZTdSU!ZYV!aaZZaa right now and I love the spec. I do feel forced into Gruesome Feast to help manage mana cost of the spec, but it gives DPS at same time so I am happy with it overall. (Thank god I don't have to use VQ cause I hate that passive).
I don't mind the range on Locust Swarm most of the time because Pestilence makes it spread like wild fire so I just put it on the closest mob and run back to shoot darts. I don't require the Gargantuan as Hex is a very nice spell imo, but I like seeing the big dude enrage so I would like to see his survivability be buffed some.
I've tried some other specs before and I dislike:
Zombie bears (range of spell + VQ dependant)
VQ (pigeon holed into CD's, limiting other spell choices)
zombie dogs (die too easy)
Spirit Barrage (Animation too slow + low damage vs darts yet higher cost)
