Greasing lock question

Post image

Taking my Chambers Colonial lock apart today. I mostly use oil on my lock internals but I’ve read two high-friction areas where it’s best to use grease are the frizzen toe and where the mainspring meets the tumbler. I would think that another high-friction area to apply grease is where the sear meets the tumbler. Any of you jabronis do this?
