Yes I think this would be useful because there are situations where developers do not create universal binaries. This is most apparent with the host of applications being ported to Mac OS X on Intel that aren't compiled using GCC4 and are therefore Intel-only.
And also, it might help future-proof current Macs a little, as developers won't offer Universal Binaries forever.
