Do you have a link to an example? Sounds like an interesting
solution. Are there still joint in the corners?

Should one fill the tub with water before applying caulk/silicone/
whatever?
I've heard that's good to avoid vertical cracking.

I didn't, because my tub is adequately supported and doesn't sink more than
an insignificant fraction when filled with water.

For OP: use caulk at the tub/tile transition, and at every wall change of
plane (if tiling the walls). Grout is only used between individual tiles in
the same plane.
