Sounds like the sort of thing that would turn my miled irritation at dying into a stream of howled obscenities if I were right near the end of a level. My only concern would be that unless the levels were devilishly complex layout-wise, it would become too easy to remember layouts and the game would lose some replay value. Smarter monsters and more randomisation of tresure would probably sort that out though.
