This is exactly how I've done it in the past.  I'm lazy so I usually write 
those types of pieces in 6/8 or 12/8. :-)  Put a friends jazz waltz into a 
leadsheet once and wanted a midi sample, so I had to have a separate midi 
version where I put all the parts into triplets.  Tedious, but efective for the 
midi demo.
