Its pretty much a good idea to not use it if your Currently in any kind of scripted event, quest, dungeon or any setting where the game has you "locked" into a situation and wants you resolve it right at that very moment. If you are locked into a dungeon because of a major quest line or something or ported to a different realm or following/leading a follower to a quest objective its really not a good idea to use these spells to escape, but if your just on a side quest or misq quest or pretty much any hunt and peck quest that you could normally ignore and leave in your journal shouldn't be effected by these spells any more than they are effected by you ignoring them leaving them in your journal.
I pretty much only use it while exploring the game and mucking around etc etc, and would never use it if i was actively on a quest.
