Yes.

As to the error rate, actually if this is designed and implemented properly the 
error rate could be zero.   But even if it is not zero, best is the enemy of 
good enough.   If we only delegate to those devices that specifically negotiate 
delegations, and the vast majority of devices do not negotiate delegations, 
this won't be a problem.   If you don't routinely change your customer's 
numbering, the opportunities for that error to occur are reduced.  If this 
becomes something that people actually use and benefit from, then there will be 
an incentive to get it right, and vendors who do not get it right will lose 
business.

And, as I said in response to Joel, the homenet working group is actually 
describing a mechanism for doing this that avoids the dangling delegation 
problem by using a hidden primary/public secondary arrangement, so that if the 
delegation temporarily fails during renumbering, it's not visible to hosts on 
the internet anyway, because queries were never going to the CPE device.   
Personally I think this is actually the best solution, whether it's an 
ISP-hosted secondary or something more like what dyndns.net used to do.
