- Before you use the player object (usually to avoid JIP issues) all you need is to run:
waitUntil { not isNull player };
Anything else you see in other scripts is equivalent and/or redundant.
Of course JIP players may need more than just the player to point at the actual JIP player unit, but that's script/mission-specific.

isNull player is true for JIP players on their client during initialization.
After initialization, it will be set, making it valid again.
To cater for this, some people use code similar to the following in their spawned scripts:
if (!isServer && (player != player)) then
{
waitUntil { player == player };
waitUntil { time > 10 };
};
_action = player addAction ["heal", "heal.sqf", [], -1, false, false, ""];

- player can actually be REMOTE object on player's PC: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6IILtfa3cQ
