I may add something concrete for allocating before.
On 9i if IO subsystem is slow/highly loaded/etc there were problems with
 application working - some statements fail with error about lack of
free space, while every file was set to auto-extensible.
The best solution was to allocate earlier.

So even if this is not a problem in let's say 10g, I would name it a
good practice anyway. In the end the space will be allocated anyway and
You may choose the time, when this is done.
