That looks like a very handy list indeed, thanks. I would caution though that the correct tightening torque for any joint depends on a number of factors including for example the condition of any fasteners being used or indeed re-used. Any variations (different washers, different plating, different surface condition, use of lubricants...) all affect the 'correct' torque. These figures should be used for guidance, not set in concrete.
I would also add (as it has come up twice in as many days) that the torque to undo a joint is not the same thing as the torque it was done up to.
