Hmm.  That's what I get for not reading back through the thread before
replying. :^)

As to fishing through knockouts, it's actually not much of a problem.  If
you avoid making horizontal runs, you only have to drop the cable through
the top or bottom of the wall.  Properly planned, you can almost completely
avoid horizontal pulls.  On retrofits, you pretty much have to do vertical
drops only.
