If you don't have the skill not to nose-over and not to let the aeroplane swap ends in a high speed tail-up taxy you shouldn't be signed up as competant on tailwheel aircraft.
Exactly:

One has to remember this is the private pilot forum and many here may not even be private pilots yet, so their vision of how to fly is badly blurred.

At the risk of offending some posters here it is my personal opinion that if you are not equally competent and at ease with both the three point landing and the wheel landing you have not finished learning how to fly tail wheel airplanes.

I sure would not turn you loose on any tail wheel airplane I owned or was responsible for.
