Quality wise, it will not be good enough for stiching, but as starting values for the estimation process, it should be helpful.
If extended to the mosiac mode where the solution is more ambiguous, it should help limiting the solution space. And for other photogrammetry applications it should definitely be helpful, such as for example Autodesk123D Catch. That generate 3D models (mesh and texture) from photographs. That solution must calculate camera postion and orientation as a part of the solution, this problem would get better bundaries with an initial attitude estimate.
