I tend to look at it based on how the offense is handling the situation. If the offense is playing keep away, and doing it well, I'm not going to call little brush fouls just because the defense isn't quick enough to make a good attempt at the ball. If the defense grabs a jersey or wraps their arms around a guy from behind, I have no problem calling the intentional - I've done it and never second guessed it. However, if the offense isn't making an effort to keep from getting fouled. For instance, the kid with the ball is standing there holding the ball just waiting to get fouled, I'll call the touch foul as a common foul. Like most of everything else, it kind of depends on the situation - everything is relative.
