I wonder if your chances of a stable chain depend partly on the ring/cog combination -- ie, if you spend most of your time with a straight chain, perhaps the chain will jump less? My front derailleur-less setups have always had the chain on the cruising gears more or less centered and I've not dumped the chain except once when the shift lever slipped very suddenly.
