Thanks. Good points all around. It does seem better to use my questions to show, rather than tell.
And deckeda's take on the Migration Asst is what I have in mind, but want to get some confirmation/second opinions on the details of the tweaking from the Genius Bar. The current migration is actually a dry run, using a secondary backup clone and the MBP's factory-fresh Snow Leopard installation. Once I'm sure I know what I'm doing and it works, I'll wipe the MBP, re-install 10.6, and then repeat it for the real migration using the newest backup.
