Not me! I've been thinking about it some more since at one point I thought it would work, then I thought it had some problems, but now I'm back to thinking it would work.
One issue with this method is the ever-changing default gateway but the other issue is that of source addresses and as I see it this can be solved two ways. First, you could get a decent-sized block from one of your ISPs and advertise it using BGP to both providers. Use NAT to translate your internal addresses to an address from your global pool. Second, you could simply use NAT on both border routers and translate your internal addresses to the provider addresses. One downside to this is that you'd probably need to use the links in an active/backup fashion to avoid accidentally translating the same internal address twice, each time with an IP address from a different provider. This isn't as big of a deal if you go active/backup. Sure, there will be some disruption if one link fails but it sure beats a lot of downtime and having to manually change IP addressing and gateways.
