  1. “[a]s a matter of good practice, the bankruptcy court's retention order should likewise specifically confirm that the retention has been approved pursuant to §328 so as to avoid any ambiguity. The absence of such a specific reference in the bankruptcy court's order, however, would not of itself automatically override the retention applicant's invocation of §328.”
