NO!  Say it aint so!
Funny, I could picture that happening if my A-4 had ever had 
something like that happen... I never did give much thought to 
documenting my wiring as I was doing it.  You can bet that I will be 
applying what I have learnt along the way in the new pit, with nicely 
arranged and documented wiring.

I hear you on the paint thing, it never looks like a big job till 
you've started :)
What are the pots going to drive?

... and speaking of interface stuff, has anyone used the simkits 
controllers, I've got one of their "multi-controller" boards on the 
bench at work, it is a great little gadget and cheap as chips!
