Speaking from experience, do relieve the pressure via the Pressure Relief Valve, or be prepared for a shower and a bit of a hunt for the plug ! It's amazing how much pressure is present in that tank, and it can drive the plastic plug quite a distance.
The advice on this site regarding wintering has been very helpful - thanks to all who chime in on the details !
