Personally I'd much rather see my weight curves in the animation editor where
you can see them a hell of a lot clearer and have more room to play around with
... and you can easily select the custom parameter itself and see all the
sliders' fcurves all at once in the ae... then of course you can make a clip of
the slider animation so you are sure that no animation is lost when you have to
transfer it...

What?
Can you please explain why setting keys in the mixer is a big "no-no" ? I've
always done that and have never had any problems. I find having the weight
curves on the shape tracks is a great visual clue on what's happening
between your shapes, something you don't get using a custom parameter set.
