When I significantly disturb a plant's roots, I'll usually remove some of the above-ground material to help the plant recover. Specifically with VFTs, I've noticed that the ones I cut back after planting actually grow better than the ones where I left all aboveground leaves intact. On a major transplant w/ Cephs, they sometimes let some of their pitchers just wilt away anyway, so now I usually chop them off ahead of time...
On the pitcher vs leaf photosynthesis question - can't see that it matters a lot [imho].
