I wouldn't do it. While stability would be great and all that, depending on how you do it you could easily injure somebody. There really aren't that many "little muscles" around the shoulder like there are other joints. Sure, there are quite a few muscles there (the rotator cuff is 4/5 depending on who you ask!) but there are other ways to work those..

Also, I wouldn't consider "stability" to neccessarily be a major issue in the shoulder as much as in say the ankles and hips.
