I cannot comment about what is recommended, but I build/update 
world/kernel from remote as well (inside a tmux session to being able to 
disconnect) and naturally that does not allow for single user mode.

Had not had any problems so far, but this install is rather young. 
Around half a year and 5-6 complete rebuilds.

But again, I am the opposite to an expert so maybe I just have been lucky.
