Yeah, you gotta do this on Stew Mac # 5167 saddle sets all the time. For some weird reason they seem to come in the package left handed; that is, the "extra" saddle is set up for slanting the wrong direction.
One time I opened 6 packages at once and rearranged the saddles as they be needed for the bridge plates, and only had to swap one single saddle. But it only takes seconds, no big deal.
As for the previous question, standard knowledge is that the center saddle is slanted the wrong way when you switch to a wound G string. I'm saying, install the saddle, monkey with it, and you may find by adjusting the heights of the D and G that the strings will intonate OK, again, also depending on string guage. My "wound G" sets are D'Ads with fairly small G string diameter.
