do I enter the transposing instruments into the score in concert pitch

Voice and transpose it into concert pitch after I've edited, or should
I enter the content in concert pitch (transposing back into C on the
fly as I type)?
Playing trombone as I do, I get parts in any combination of bass clef,
tenor clef, or treble/Bf. I need some sort of convention to avoid
getting messed up, and the obvious one for me is:
All parts are entered as variables. All parts are copied in in the pitch
they are written. All parts are wrapped in a transpose to make the
variable concert pitch. So the notes are entered as either
voiceTromboneI = \transpose c' bf { c e g }
or
voiceTromboneI = \transpose c' c' { bf d f }
When outputting a treble clef part I can then do the following no
problem ...
\transpose bf c' \voiceTromboneI
Cheers,
Wol
