What is the current belief on how to restore the interior of a cabinet?

1) Paint it with a flat black/white
2) Polyurethane the interior wood
3) Simply sand the wood a little to brighten it
4) Sand lightly and apply wood hardner

Not sure if there is a true belief for resale value about which is the best method for a complete restore. Obviously if Bondo is involved painting the area, like a shelf, is the right choice but what about the rest of the Cab?
 
If the original was painted, I will repaint it. Otherwise, I like to just sand it down a bit. Gives the wood a nice new look.

The above photo is an in progress photo, but you can see the difference you can make with some sanding.
