Reinstalls really aren't necessary unless you're having a relatively major problem with performance.

Most apps can be downloaded from the net so I would reinstall them rather than drag&drop as there might be some issues, especially with bigger ones.

Use Migration Assistant to restore your documents and apps from your Time Machine backup; it won't cause any performance issues on your new 10.6 installation. It's also a HUGE timesaver vs. installing and configuring all of your applications again.
