The single coolest thing I got out of WWDC last year was a one-on-one
session with an Apple interface design specialist . He spent a half
hour session with me and totally took apart my interface design and
put it back together again. That was arguably worth the price of
admission by itself.
The bottom line is, you can probably get any question you want
answered at WWDC. You can ask a question at a mike at the end of a
session, you can sign up for one on one time with experts in any
aspect of Mac development, you can grab some one in the hall between
sessions. Random strangers probably can teach you things you never
considered, too.
So if you want to convince your employers to send you, I think you
need to tell them "Here's a list of questions that, if I could get
answers to, it would impact our bottom line thusly..."
As for networking, it seemed to me the entire mac developer community
was there. If you pick a frequent poster to this list at random,
there's a better than even chance he'll be there. If you attend, you
should have a quite comprehensive idea of who's doing what in mac
development by the time you leave.
Good luck!
