Yeah, it is a bit like the nasty problem that negatives/slides have of getting/being scratched and collecting dust. After having scanned about a thousand rolls, I can tell you that the dust on the sensor feels like a bit less of a problem than the film damage. Both have to be dealt with if/when they occur. It certainly pays to be aware of the potential problem though.
