Grounds, a mysterious thing...

...I was at the dealer the other day talking about a system for my (not yet owned) new vehicle, and we got on the subject of grounds.

Apparently it's a good idea to run them all to the same ground (obviously), but run a cable (0 AWG) from that ground to the same ground that the alternator is connected to. Seems a little excessive, although I can kind of see the reasoning behind it... kind of. Did you do this?

I've always just removed the paint and grounded directly to the shiny metal... Different strokes for different folks?
