Multicurrency Revaluation Questions

Please help to understand this:

1) Can you please give me a practical example of when it is necessary to use the "Realized" option in the "Multicurrency Revaluation" window?
So far, it makes sense to use this window to post Unrealized gain/loss, but it seems the Realized gain/loss should be posted from Sub-Ledger modules. For example when we enter Bank Transaction to do the actual exchange of the Cash in foreign currency.

2) The Revaluation windows allows to revalue the same account (for example Account Payable account) from both Purchasing Series and Financial Series. And it will create duplicate revaluation if we do from both. How do we choose which series to use for revaluation? What is the general practice? Let's say I need to do unrealized revalue for Account Payables and Cash accounts.
