Never use `...`, always $(...), always use the braces for variable names and always quote paths that contain variables.
I do not agree with your view that braces should always be used around variable names. While I would like to read any justification about that, my opinion is that they should only be used when necessary.
For example, in a PKGBUILD I would write ${pkgname}_$pkgver, because _ can be part of a variable name, but I'd much rather prefer to use $pkgname-$pkgver, since hyphens are not allowed in variable names.
Less typing, less ugliness. :)
