Pretty much - but with the following exceptions which I may blade off:-

Doors - when I fear that any run off might freeze and be an ice hazard.

Downstairs large panes/patio doors if it's very windy and in dusty conditions.

One silly old bat who insists on it for the downstairs but who pays me extra to do it! (Despite my silver-tongued dulcet toned explanations as to why it's not necessary - her husband just rolls his eyes at her behind her back and signals to me that if it keeps her happy then that's ok by him! ;D)
It's a game of three halves!

Other than the reason Malc(G)old said WHY wouldn't you leave them wet, it's the whole idea of wfp unless you want to double the time taken.

On first cleans I always blade off and check the "eyeball" windows to make sure nothing has been missed. By the eyeball windows I mean the kitchen and any patio doors or big picture windows downstairs.
Its frightening just how often I find stubborn marks that have been left behind despite giving the windows a good going over with the brush.

Yes, you've got to blade in straight lines (like an amateur!) but detailing is rarely necessary as no soap lines are left.
