Scott, I not only agree that it is not always a great idea, but that it is always a bad idea.  But get ready for the attacks, because they are coming.  We are about to be pilloried by those who run their refrigerators on propane while underway.  I was even given an electronic, digital lashing for pointing out that the owner's book says that one should make sure to turn off the propane valve before getting underway.

However, more times than I can count, I have turned the burner to that setting and left it on while thinking it off.  Went hiking once with it that way.  Yikes.  I have a marker posted between the burner knobs now that is a reminder to me to be sure the burners are turned to the "off" position.
