Not sure about best practices, I like staying with stable and will use Debian 
backports.  No longer a proponent of apt pinning sid & testing, or other repo's.

Iceweasel (Firefox) 5.x entered Sid recently.  I think once it migrates to 
testing, it will be a candidate for squeeze-backports.

I have squeeze-backports added to my sources.list & /etc/apt/preferences files.
