I think it would be a good idea to make the SoB work an "opt-in" only set-up. As it is, if a user has checked the "get-other-work" if the work of your choice is out, the SoB units can be downloaded to some really slow machines by accident. This happened to me this morning with the PPS LLR shortage, and I have had to go through and manually kill off as many of these as I can (my apologies to my wingmen on those killed off and to the couple on remote machines that I cannot get to that will likely time-out). Given that the "get other work" option is now used by many users wanting to crunch LLR or Sieve on their CPUs while getting AP26 for their GPUs, this is a problem that will likely occur with some frequency.

Problem is that the only way of doing opt-in is as a beta subproject, and that means that beta work is all you'll receive if you have it ticked. I'm not sure BOINC has a way to handle this cleanly...
