In a lot of cases they just fudged it by saying the inhabitants were indifferent which is realistic enough: they often are, not least because empires don't like having a politically active populace in the first place.
If you are going to use ISW, cause the trouble to come from primarily from nativist leaders rather than the Ziru Sirka. That is not necessary as there was at least one Imperial Loyalist revolt recorded in the book somewhere. It fits better just the same.
