Yes, I think this is useful. 

The drawback of forcing ALL points to fit is that you force all
control points to be perfect: If there happens to be a rogue control
point in there, this will have a huge influence on the result.

Also there might be "unfixable" parallax errors. One photo might have
much more between two images. 

Consider

       1 a b c d 2
       3    e    4

The 1, 2, 3 and 4 are control points. 1-3 are a vertical line. 2-4
too. And 1-a-b-c-d-2 are evenly spaced, as are 3-e-4 on a different
picture.

On the other hand, you seem to be getting pretty good results in
practise. I guess practise trumps theoretical drawbacks.. :-)

The plan was simple, like my brother-in-law Phil. But unlike
Phil, this plan just might work.
