I just did the PADI ice diving course this past weekend with the guy who wrote the book for PADI's ice diving course (literaly...) There was a group of us, and some had BC's other's had BP/Wings, some had rec hose routing...
Different setups were fine for the class, although I think that in the future I would personaly prefer to use my BP/Wing setup (I just used my ranger for the class) The BP/Wing is what would work best for me, as it should be looked at as a very technical dive, and I prefer not to change my setup for different dives.
but yea... there's not much snorkleing to be done in the ice hole, so we left those off too (or rather, I didn't re-attach it)
