I rarely replace anything that isn't rubber. The old cloth cover wire I'm just careful not to flex it much. You can get yourself in to a bit of trouble doing a full rewire job. You have to pay attention to the layout, it's not too awfully hard to break off terminals when removing the old wiring which can make relatively simple job a headache.
What I do is replace the rotten pieces and go though the HV wiring and replace those too. Had one not too long that the HV wiring looked good but after some usage a section went up in smoke.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got it!
