I just discovered that the 2008 (yes, I'm really late to the party) rules dropped the 1B & 5B corners requirement on the full rack. I had not looked at the rules since the 2006 version was released, which was the last time that tradition was upheld.
Anyone know why the BCA would remove that requirement? IMO, it was a respectful thing to do for your opponent.
