I was about to say that was a bad idea, but I bet it would be fine on a commuter bike. They shouldn't see anything more crazy than a drop off the curb or a pothole

I pity the poor soul that tries to take it off even a small ramp, though

It doesn't have to be like that. It's possible to spread out the weight and yet keep the Center of Mass in the same spot.

If anything, it would make it easier to carry/lift compared to having it all in one spot.
