I use the whole leg method, although my heel does occasionally touch the floor (when resting, usually, like at a traffic light with the clutch in).

The important thing, no matter how you position your foot/leg, is that you have total control over the clutch release. You need to be able to release slowly from a stop or on a hill, or release a little quicker for faster shifts. If you get into a routine where your clutch release becomes robotic, you're going to have issues in certain situations.
