Do you bake the pie crust before filling a ham and cheese quiche?

Normally in a lemon meringue pie the pie crust is fully cooked, then the lemon curd filling is added, then the Italian meringue is piled on top. To finish, most recipes will say to either give the pie 2-5 minutes in a very hot oven (to give the meringue some colour/crispyness), or to lightly blowtorch the meringue. The rationale for fully cooking the pie crust is because the pie will either only briefly be baked again, or will be finished with a blowtorch ; cooking times are far to quick to make any difference to how cooked the crust is.
