Maybe a tad OT...
I've seen a lot of good debate on <i>Raise Dead</i> and the similar Clerical spells. However, I have not seen a mention of <i>Reincarnate</i> or <i>True Reincarnate</i> in the thread (and if I missed it, I'm sorry).
Given, <i>Reincarnate</i> is a more chancy spell to cast, since there is the possibility that the PC will come back as something that might not be too easily played (though, with <u>Savage Species</u> out, some difficulties can be overcome). However, it is still a very powerful spell and, sometimes, can even greatly aide the character (Pixie Rogue, anyone?).
I bring this up because, in the game I am participating, we have a Druid that can cast <i>Reincarnate</i> (but our Cleric cannot yet cast <i>Raise Dead</i>, as I recall). He had to do so, once, and the party swashbuckler (Rogue) came back as a leopard. He saw some difficulty, but eventually made due with the new form and has adapted quite nicely.
Just another view on the 'bringing players back from the dead' idea.
Edit: Trying to keep with the html tags I established.
Yay! at being top of page two!
