I'm thinking the paddle holster would be easier to remove if you ever change clothes or so places where CCW is not allowed. But how secure is it ? Since it doesn't attach to a belt, won't it wiggle or slide on the belt ?

You're thinking right on the first part of your statement. Secure? The paddle goes between your body and inside of your pants, assuming you'll be wearing a belt, and tightly enough to support your pistol's weight, no issues. Besides, most paddle holsters have barbs that press outward above and below the belt from the inside of the pants. It will only wiggle or slide if you don't take care to do your part. I have a Fobus paddle holster for my large Glocks, I'm fixin' to get another one tomorrow for my SIG P220. Cold weather is just down the pike, I'll be using these alot as well as my leather belt holsters.
I almost forgot----advantages/disadvantages? Those mainly lie with the end user in my opinion.
