Great idea :) Just make sure you remember to make any changes in v7 and not in v8.

Each time you want to update your Legacy 8.0 version restore the most recent 7.0 backup into Legacy 8. That will preserve all your Legacy specific data structures such as SourceWriter style sources and date modified etc. which are lost when transferring data between versions using a GEDCOM.
