I think the stackexchange for Drupal would be a good thing (validates the size and relevancy of Drupal for developers in the big world out there) but it should not be considered a replacement for d.o. forums. Drupal.org needs to be self-sustainable - this validates Drupal's ability to cater, on its own, for its community.
