They're both good.  Learn any and every roll you can.  Some people
learn the sweep first, some learn the C to C first.  I recommend
learning the "other" roll, second!

>on-deck storage bags - step towards death or great idea?

Depends on where you're paddling. A big N-O in surf.  Plunking around
in an estuary, looking for birds?  Absolutely!  Unless you have a big
camera or binoculars, or lots of cookies, do you really need that much
stuff on deck?

>or raisins vs no raisins in trail mix?

Neither: craisins...mmm!
