For hobby and prototype applications, there's simply no good reason to mess with unleaded solder and a bunch of reasons not to. It's only appropriate for production work that gets shipped to Europe, and that's not something that one would do in a home workshop anyway. Leaded solder isn't any more hazardous now than it was ten years ago, so the handling precautions that applied then are still adequate today.

I'd jettison the lead-free stuff completely and go back to the leaded solder you're familiar with and that's easy to work with.
