One thing's for sure, I've fallen so many times that I'm finally getting pretty good at it!
Yes, it's generally a good thing to be going slower when crashing. However, as someone else noted, the front brake especially can compromise control when on the edge, and can make it more likely that you can't pull out. I am not sure grabbing the rear would help, but it's less likely to do harm than the front.
Practice is good. Anyone for a game of polo?
