very interesting thread about that at :

Personally I have another question.
How about attacking the problem the other way around,
how about closing the valve when diving and only opening it to equalize the preasure then closing it again.
Doing this like every 20/30 bars would make around 6 equalizations /dive
and it would take alot shorter period of time to identify the problem, Just look down to the two manometers to find out whats leaking. then shutdown the right valve if its possible to stop the leak.
would that not be an advantage ?

BTW the author of the article describes what I can only assume is his personal mode of handling the situation:
*dropping everything/fumbing around/bubbles gurgling all over/hit the silt and drop the visibility to zero*

When I looked at the article again Hobbs I realized that they do not even address the only reason you would need to isolate...
They don't even mention tank o-ring or burst disk (you probably don't even have burst disks over there do you?)
So a question for you... with the scenarios that they list why would you need to isolate??
