@Inboard, What is the reason for the choice? Does she need to use touring (Tech/Dynafit) boots in alpine bindings?
Apart from needing to use a binding at the very limits of its DIN settings, which may indicate you have the wrong binding, I am not aware of any requirement to use them in the middle of the DIN settings.
I think that Women's bindings, like Women's skis, are just marketing terms either relating to colour, or that Women are generally shorter/lighter than Men, so bindings have a lower DIN range, or skis are shorter. The 4-13 DIN range should cover the majority of skiers.
I'm not much heavier at 68Kg, and I have my bindings set to 6 or 7.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@PowderAdict, thanks. Apologies for lack of clarity. She uses touring/ freeride boots because we mainly tour, with pin bindings. However we seem to be doing (and anticipating) more lift-served hedonism hence seeking more appropriate bindings that will accommodate a rockered vibram sole.
I'd forgotten I'd instigated a similar thread in May (although on that occasion for my own bindings rather than partner's) which answers many of my concerns. http://snowheads.com/ski-forum/viewtopic.php?t=125747&highlight= Unfortunately I've not yet mounted my Wardens or I'd not need to ask!
but to save others their time - I'm happy to consider this question/ thread resolved.

@Inboard, Warden is marketed by Salomon as a unisex binding, absolutely no problem as long as it matches her DIN requirments and is the right binding for the type of boot and skiing she does.
