Yes, that sounds right.

Right, going from axis to spindle shouldn't be a big problem, just 
freeze the encoder position
so it doesn't think C is moving.  But, going from spindle mode to axis 
mode is trickier,
as it has to gently engage the position servo.

When the spindle is being positioned, technically is is a C axis, as in 
rotating parallel to the
Z axis.
