Tedious Newt. collimation with binoviewer?

From what I've read (Denkmeier website), you collimate a newt's optics for the night with the binoviewer in place and use defocused star images instead of a laser.

This sounds like a step back, with to-ing and fro-ing between the eyepiece and mirror cell. Is this the way it has to be? Any experience out there?
