Engine braking

Saves brakes, but worth the wear and tear on transmission?

Does it increase or decrease fuel economy?

Any other thoughts? (I've heard both answers to both questions. I'm curious to see if anyone can provide a convincing well-reasoned answer to either.) I of course realize answers may depend on the situation somewhat.
