To address one of the OP's original points, this plan would not allow you to generate a silk farm. The little cave spiders don't actually spin the webs, the webs just generate out of thin air the same way the vermin do. Only GIANT cave spiders can be used to create silk farms, and that is a much more dangerous and complicated project. A decent guide can be found on the wiki.

Really? because when i've tamed cave spiders and thrown them in a pit (40d) i noticed a significant increase in spider webs down there.
