Um... no.

Radiosity is actually just cached diffuse reflections, nothing else. 
It's the forward-raytracing component that places photon mapping 
seriously off the grid.

There is no such thing as a "collect on|off" or "emission on|off" in the 
specular (inter-)reflection block, so why should there be such a thing 
for diffuse interreflection?

It isn't a poor choice from my seat, for the reasons already explained, 
and in that light I do think that the syntax of a well-established 
unfficial patch should be favored over an otherwise equally good but 
newly invented syntax.
