I have looked at the Terms and Conditions of Google Maps and can find nothing that seems to prohibits this usage. As for feasibility, I have tried it interactively in a URL querying directions for 3 sequential locations, and it seems to work fine. Perhaps there is a limit somewhere in the number of locations or the total length of the URL string.
I have made an inquiry about this in the Google Maps Help Group, where this topic properly belongs since it is not API-related. But I just want to post this for the record here because of the comments above.
