Maybe not, but it works fine for me.

I like to keep my raw files organized by year/month/shoot and named by subject, 
though I tend to keep working directories under the year.

For example

Processed and filed:
2010/1009/100907_burningman/blissdance

Recently shot, not yet processed:
2010/101003/black_belt_tests/101002_nathan_shodan

This way, if things, at some point, go pear shaped with lightroom, I can fairly 
easily find the directories that I'm looking for with standard file system 
search. Or, alternatively, if I want to process them with Bibble, or some other 
program, the files are in some logical structure.

I have a very similar structure on my linux box, where I have my second copy of 
raw files.
