Is it good practice to switch it on only when the engine is idling - the compressor and its clutch will then take less of a shock load. Am I perhaps a bit obsessive - or does it make sense?

Yes.
The compressor cuts in and out all the time in use. It doesn't wait for you to be idling to do that.

You mean you actually switch it off?
Mine's running all the time. Even in the depths of winter.

No. As the compressor will cut in and out as required on most modern systems, mine therefore spends a lot of its time cutting in with the engine at >4000 rpm.
