Dave, I think nowadays most slide shooters would mount only those which are considered keepers, and then only if they are to be projected or sent to an agency or other body that needed mounted submissions. Having your slides 'cut and sleeved' by a pro lab is the cheapest way to go for non-process-paid film anyway. and is what I do myself. It's amazing how ruthless one can be in ditching the disasters when noy tempted to keep them just because they're mounted!
For metering, if you are using TTL metering the effect of the extra extension should be compensated for automatically. The only thing you may need to add additional compensation for would be reciprocity failure. If you are using external metering, a good set of reciprocity failure tables will be invaluable.
