It's pretty important to me...
BFC can help somewhat with rendering speed. Getting the correct polygon
wrapping (a crucial element of BFC) is good for people writing utility
programs, or translating LDraw language. Frequently, we run into
situations where wrapping is required.

I would say yes. A more immediate goal is to get to the point where all
new files are BFC certified.

Woohoo!! :)

Fixes *usually* move through the tracker faster than new parts.

My opinion is to go ahead and continue use mirrored files. Renderers
that make stud-logos need to deal with mirrored studs.
