I do this frequently as a quick means of "softening" the flash
output. It works well, although the diffusor card only covers
99% of the flash output in this position. The card doesn't get
hot either.

It shouldn't require any compensation in A or TTL mode. In both
cases the light reflected from the subject is measured anyway. I
certainly don't use compensation (on my FE ;-)

Yes, they seem quite odd and look even more so, but they work
remarkably well.
Hope this helps
