Something akin to this idea was discussed a while ago, and the best practice would be to steer clear of it. It's not always advantageous to put all your eggs in one basket (sorry for the overused analogy).
Ideally, if you need something as complex as what pfSense provides, you would be better off implementing physically separate devices. Combining them all creates too great a point of failure, and dilutes the goals of pfSense development. This is my experience from my background.
