Yes, and I agree. Having everything important happen directly in the characters presence and allow them force they way into everything leads to a unwanted feeling of shallowness. That's my opinion anyway. Having them chafing a bit at the leash keeps 'em keen.

Ohh, more difficult. That depends on the gm's preferences and abilities and the players inclinations. Could only be answered on a case by case basis (I think). And as I'm not actually running a campaign at the moment, I can't say. I'd like the answer to be yes though.
