Good point, and I agree. One student in a small class had used the Headway book, so I adapted and extended more of the activities than normal. That allowed me to challenge him and keep him interested. Yet I wouldn't
not choose a textbook based on fears that some students have used it before. The key with any book is to adjust and adapt so as to personalize it to the needs of the class, I think.
Finding the right textbook is always hard, mostly because you don't fully know the capabilities of the students until the third or fourth lesson.
