I'm very much in the camp of short stem with riser bars every time, always have been, but more recently, as my comfort has become more important than simply looking way cool! I have realised that a short stem not only looks cool, but also brings the bar nearer to you, thus sitting you up, add to the that a riser bar and the upright position is improved even more. That's how I see it anyway.
