I really like this. Usually i have a "white" blend texture just for this case in nearly every of my files. Even without a texture this modifier has a lot of use cases. Lately i was creating seams on clothes with it (vertexgroup = height, white texture to make it do something). One thing I'm still missing would be an extrude-modifier. ;-)
