From experience, you can't apply too much into wind aileron after landing on a highly swept wing. The B747 upwind wing will lift until below 60kts on the landing roll. i agree with BOAC on the landing case, there is no fixed setting to apply - err on the side of caution and apply as much as you need - or more, it is unlikely that the (extra) aileron input will cause directional control problems.
