Bad only if it became stuck at the rearward position. I guess the question is whether the benefits outweighed (literally) the weight and complexity to do this.

In my C150H once trimmed you can cause a pitch change by leaning forward or back (if passenger and pilot do so its kinda fun....)

I wonder if it would be disconcerting to the pilot having a changing CG (hence trim).
