I have just assembled a RPi + FLIRC + RPi 7" display + Hifiberry Digi+, and am using the 2nd method. I've ordered a short (15cm) cable for this. The Digi+ prevents use of the 3rd method, and the 1st method seems overkill. Although I'm not using a 2A PSU; the total current being drawn from the USB supply is about 0.95A.
