@MrE
Arguably both are correct.
If I understand it correctly, your first proposal would apply to any film where you are not using the 'correct' (i.e. manufacturer's) rating.
Your 'develop as normal' approach should largely work with XP2 (and other chromogenic?) film where variations in exposure give useable images but with some variation in apparent grain size.
When it first came out, XP was a bit like photographic marmite with lovers and haters espousing all manner of claimed advantages or problems - many of these ideas can still be found even when they are complete twaddle. Read more ( http://www.flickr.com/groups/64599571@N00/discuss/ for example ) then test your thinking by noting what works for you and what doesn't.
