There are a few more features in MT that now are coming to light as problems for publishing to another server. The main one I just spotted just now is that the Ping features are fairly useless unless MT is already on the public server. I'd have to create a parallel version of the Ping functionality that was activated when I was pushing files up to my public server.
The other issue is that comments are a big pain in the butt. I'd have to leave URLs to my local MT install in the published versions of my HTML files. As long I don't have a huge slam of comments on a blog entry, that would work, but it does kinda kill my anonymity if I felt I needed it.
