I would put the track in for feather boards but don't bother with the
miter
gauge. The set up time will bore you quickly. I use a square piece of
3/4" thick plywood that is guided by the FENCE not the slot.
I can see that would work much of the time, but sometimes wouldn't the bit
hit the plywood?

Think of it as a backerboard to prevent tearout
