Yes, that would seem like a good way to do it and is the way I am currently doing it. It is just that saving up to 12 tabs per browser session then organising them when you open them up again at home is a administrative nightmare especially when you are reading up on a variety of subjects which you then have to organise on your usb stick aswell.
This has the potential to capture a session as is at one computer and take it to another in a single "storage" unit and either reading it offline or conitnuing to browse further at the new machine. There are as you suggest current ways around this, but I think this would neaten up the process and also prove to be usefull in other domains for instance you are doing a research project and have saved your web sources in this new magical chrome feature. You could then write this file to backup somewhere and when you read your research paper in future and wonder what gave me this idea or that idea you can go and open up the file which contained that thead of thought if you name the file appropriately. But yes, I agree there are current ways of doing it. I just think that this way would prove to be more usefull since it works on a more familiar model to software users. i.e. open office document, you can edit it at work save it to file take it home double click on it and continue from there. I am just thinking of a similair features for entire browser sessions, ie handling all open tabs as a whole and not saving each tab individually.
