Never! That's worst practice, you also told why: if you'll update your 
TYPO3 src in some time the changes will gone! This rule also applies to 
other source resources like extensions' templates etc.

Makes no sense until you need to change only few parts

Hmmm... monkey... nevermind :) Thats (probably) best idea (whatever the 
monkey is)

And the winner is:
You can overwrite only selected values in standard Template record 
(Module: Web -> Templates -> Setup field)

On the other hand I would suggest you to rather modify CSS styles of 
your own, it's faster and more comfortable, as you just can find proper 
solution using something like FireBug or other typical webmaster's tools.
