I wouldn't advise redeveloping only partially in the toner Chris. There is no point and it leaves silver halides behind. Better to control at the bleach stage and redevelop fully what has been bleached (which can be much or very little - but controllable). There are plenty of other ways of controlling colour, ratio of silver to sulphide etc if needed.

Your recommendation seems to confirm common experience with the staining ability of brown toners. Obviously if you only partially indirect tone (for colour reasons) it is not only risky as far as residual undeveloped silver but also as it becomes almost unrepeatable, since the colour change in the tray is quite rapid.
