Now that Sarge is released, do I need to point 'update' & 'upgrade' to
"stable", or leave Sarge as the target?
No, you can do nothing, if you like.
Pointing it to "stable" would only do something once the next release
happens. Then, the new "stable" would be uhh... whatever that new
name is, and then you'd see lots of upgradable packages. For now,
it'll make no difference.
Basically, if you intend to specifically use sarge and nothing else,
put sarge in there. You might do that if sarge does what you need and
you're following the "if it ain't broke don't fix it" philosophy.
On the other hand, if you intend to keep upgrading to the most modern
stable system available, and you don't want to manually do the switch
(although it'll essentially be manual anyway) use "stable".
