I understand now you are trying to speed the process of setting up a new rom with minimal errors once set up; which I appreciate, any way to speed up the process of setting up a new rom is great, given it works. I *believe* swype is tempermental to the build and find that running the installer is the easiest way to get it on my phone. However a way to get my widgets to stay on my home screen after a rom flash would be great.

I may have this one, although it slows the overall set up process down a bit.
- Install ROM, let it install all apps on its own, or else just kill that and restore apps only using TiBu.
- Reboot phone
- Use TiBu to now restore settings
- Reboot phone.
YMMV, but this time around when restoring my backup I used this method an all my widgets were back as of the second reboot....
And, yeah, Swype is so much of a PITA - it worked on the last three ROMs without a problem, so when it b0rked on this one I was miffed a bit - but I realize that it could be any one of my 170+ apps installed, so...

that is interesting - have you tried wiping caches every other day and seeing if that helps? That is the first thing that comes to mind when it comes to periodic failure like that, as the caches are the one thing that start going not so well with our phones.
Another thing is the number of SMS stored in memory - I had gotten up to 500, and while I couldn't say it was a bad thing directly, I did notice improved phone responsiveness after using SMS Backup and Restore to back them up and then delete them all...
Migrating to GV also has helped, except that not everyone know to use my GV number instead of my reg cell number lol....

All good bro - we both made mistakes - but at least we kept hour heads about it and explained ourselves.
