Vertex colors are way too low resolution for practical. If you want to synthesize a texture with enough detail it won't work well this way, not unless you require very high memory usage by subdividing the mesh that much. The second issue is that it would be quite a strange workflow, texturing is usually done elsewhere, it's strange to do it on a mesh and then require the user to bake it down.
