I've most definitely taken ad space into consideration:
- a banner near logo,
- a leaderboard under primary navigation
- and two squares (300x250) can fit nicely along the right side
Last night I embedded all of the ad blocks into the tpl, and can control each via CSS using display: none.
Does anyone know if this will this render problems with adsense in regard to false impressions? (as oppose to completely removing the code from the template).

Take it easy. While I was going to chime in on the side of "start with ads, because adding them later just pisses people off". But I'm also of the opinion that early stage sites should have minimal ad clutter. Find out what you have to do to make the site pay before you decide to pile them on. One ad spot is probably a good starting point.
You may already be saying you're going to experiment rather than pile them all on at once--but I can't be sure from your comment, so I thought it worth adding.
