managed to dent yet another rim at the weekend - will straighten it up with grips, but got me to wondering whether carbon rims would be a benefit regards this problem, or would they be more likely to just crack?

Anyone have an opinion?

IME they'll shake off many impacts which would dent an alu rim, but if you do get a big enough impact then they will crack.
