if you convert a WAV file to FLAC then back to WAV it doesn't "damage" the file in terms of quality and all that jazz?

Correct.  Comparing the original WAV against the file that you converted from WAV to FLAC and back to WAV...the WAVs are (assuming nothing went wrong) identical.

You can always create an md5 signature for the wavfile (before encoding)  to check after decoding the flac back to wav.
