Those warnings about not plugging in cables while powered up is simpily
a warning just so you won't accidentially mis-allign the pins when plugging in
and fry something.  An A/B switch should work just fine.  Whenever you plug in
using your hands while powered up you can cross short some pins, but an AB
switch shouldn't present any problems.
