This sounds like a great idea, assuming space concerns are met.  But did you
see this in the article you linked to?:

"While the system worked very well, it was extremely unstable. In
particular, we got a kernel oops fairly often when we logged out. . . .The
problem persists. Please let bsmith at linuxtoys dot org know if you have
any ideas that might help fix this problem."

Sounds like it could be quite frustrating for both users and administrators.
