I use to mark all my parameters final (except perhapt for usenet 
postings, but that's an 80 char limit issue, we have wide screen 
displays for god's sake) and if I think that in one particular case it's 
clearer to just modify the parameter and go with that than to introduce 
a new variable, it will directly show because there's a parameter 
without a "final" raising my attention.
This hybrid approach has, so far, served me best.

Kind regards,
Wanja
