Best practice for adding already-linked Insteon devices to IoX?

[PatPend]

I'm moving into a new house and working with electricians to install Insteon dimmers throughout.  Several 3- and 4- way switch circuits are now wired with a single dimmer powering the load and the rest with no-load dimmers or keypads acting as controllers.  The devices are two-way linked using the link button so the LEDs sync.  

When I eventually install an EISY and add the installed and linked dimmers to it, will the linked dimmers show up grouped together as a scene?  If not, should I create scenes that mirror the linked groups?  Would that then cause a conflict having dimmers linked plus a scene doing the same thing?  Or would it be better to unlink the Insteon dimmers and re-create the 3- and 4- way groups as scenes?   Or is there a better way altogether?  One concern is that some of the dimmers are micro modules buried in the box so I would prefer not to dig them out for de-linking if there's an easier option.

It's best for scenes/groups to be created and managed by the isy.. You can do this after the fact by adding them to the isy, the default is for the isy to remove any existing links when adding. A couple of points:

•  Make a spreadsheet of devices with their insteon addresses and locations.
• If you can, wait until you have the eisy to do any programming of n-way switches and insteon devices. Use the spreadsheet data then
• This approach applies to inline modules, you can add them to the isy by insteon address

This question kind of goes along with the ones I've been asking about links. I'll be following this thread.
