'  I'd interpret the broad question as "having read a cross section of
manuals, I find that there are a wide range of situations that apply.
It may be that there are best practices, frowned on procedures, most
common means of implementation and more which I in my necessarily
incomplete knowledge may have failed to pick up on

So, can anyone skilled in the art and experienced in the ways of the
beasts offer some generic advice through what is obviously a bit of a
minefield? If you know no more on the subject than I do you may wish
to wait with me for pearls of enlightenment from the masters. '

:-)

I, also, wait in eager anticipation to hear if those of suitably great
experience can reveal some sort of pattern in an apparently chaotic
area..
