I do that, too. I set my whitelist for processing ahead of junkfilter.
Messages from whitelisted senders are not sent to junkfilter this way.

I found that whitelisting my own domain the junkfilter whitelist way
caused all spam to be delivered not filtered because the domain name is in
the headers (not just the From: header) because of the mail server's name.
So, unless that's been changed, the whitelist is useless.

I like the preprocessing idea because it gives me complete flexibility. My
.procmailrc file is nothing more than a list of INCLUDERC statements in
the order in which I want them called.
