I haven't cut the steerer yet because, quite frankly, I have no idea what I am doing with a hacksaw on my bike. I am sure it isn't that difficult, but I need to be 100% sure what I am doing before I do it.
Yeah, by all means, make sure that it's going to work for you before you cut it and make sure that you're going to do the job right. Cutting isn't terribly difficult, but I wouldn't recommend doing it freehand; even securing it in a cheapie HomeDepot miter box (for a handsaw) would help tremendously.
