Make DD able to rest.
It is so bad that even diehard hardcore dwarf-fans don't touch DD.
Even if you are willing to put up with the drudge work, this design simply doesn't function in a game where resting is a core mechanic and with almost no compatible sources of healing available.
Your realistic god choices to Makhleb and perhaps Trog. Diversity! And no, Ely is a terrible choice post-rework.
Whether they are the most powerful species on the planet or the worst one doesn't matter. They one-sided and a pain in the side to play regardless.

So why aren't we taking the gordian-knot approach here and just axe the "no resting." And whatever their post-hw removal healing ability is called.
If you must have some kind of healing limitation for nostalgia reasons, let them be unaffected by potions and any non-divine source of regeneration. Not sure about vampiric and vampiric draining.

The innevitable complaint that this would make DD broken OP or whatever is irrelevant. Species aren't balanced against each other. Some are intentionally easier than others.
But if you can't sleep at night anymore, feel free to tone them down a tad elsewhere in exchange for being able to rest.
