I have not actually played through and hardened her yet, might do that while I wait for Friday.
I used to avoid hardening her because I thought it turned her evil, it was at least my 6th playthrough before I tried it, now I do it every time. If only because I usually end up traveling with her and, unhardened, I don't think that's what she wants.
I have never "hardened" her. Is it worth a new play through to do this? I almost always play as a nicer person--so I just dragged her along and tried to change her. Can you harden her and still be a more paragon person?
For instance....if you harden her will she always try to kill you if you spoil the ashes? I have never spoiled the ashes.
Depends how much the post-game means to you I guess, it doesn't make much difference to the game itself (unless you want to defile the ashes, when you'll want to harden her to keep her alive, but considering she then hates you all you really gain by that is a rogue, you lose the character). The most important change it made (I thought) was the post-coronation conversation and her plans for after, though I usually romance her and choose travelling so all I've seen is it's effect on that conversation. I think you need to download a dialogue fix for some of the hardened dialogue changes to show, but they're still nothing game-changing.
Also, a quick hardened-Leliana quote just to make a point (it's from memory, so I doubt it's word-for-word): "The maker made the world beautiful, but he also made it dangerous, to fully experience it I have to face up to this"
She's still essentially a good person, she just becomes more adventurous.
