In my case I have a workbench built along the wall of my garage, and the
RAS is set into the bench about a third of the way back from the door.
That way I have plenty of space to feed long pieces. The saw table is
aligned so it is level with the bench top. Of course to use the bench
for feeding long stock I have to clean off the work bench first. For
some reason it keeps getting cluttered up with tools and stuff.

Indeed...similar to the arrangement I described. When shop was in the
garage, I built the bench/RAS such that the rip fence would let work
pass by the open door for long pieces. The saw was set towards the open
end to get clearance the other end rather than in the middle of the wall
as "normal" placement to have same distance either way would seem to
suggest.
