Oh, from what day is his posting?

Interesting proposal.
To make sure that I understood you correctly, let's count an artificial example 
position (on 9x9-board) where both players have passed intentionally:

Final position:
. x o . o . o . .
o o o o o . . o .
. . . . . . o . o
x x x x . . o o x
. . . x . o o x x
. . . x . o . x .
. . . x . o . x .
x x x x . o o x o
. . . . . . . x .

"Chinese style counting" with all stones considered alive:
- X O O O - O O O
O O O O O - - O O
- - - - - - O O O
X X X X - - O O X
X X X X - O O X X
X X X X - O - X -
X X X X - O - X -
X X X X - O O X O
- - - - - - - X -

Cells with X count for player x,
cells with O counts for player o,
cells with - are neutral. 

Did I get it correctly?

Ingo.
