Not if you're doing heavy QoS.

We've been hit with issues where QoS commands exist on Cisco 
desktop switches, but they don't actually take - this can 
get annoying pretty fast.

In the end, it depends on what features you need to turn on, 
that determines whether you provide Layer 3 services off a 
switch or trunked router port.
