I see no problems with that at all. Damian does, however. In PBP he mentions that according to his own observations, when documentation is right next to the function it is actually less likely to be edited. However, I assume that the documentation-opening-in-an-associated-window functionality would be something you could turn on and off, and I really like the idea of having a WYSIWYG pod editor.
