Why do this?

The officials on the floor are responsible for whether the last second shot counts. You have given the table a vote, and they will demand it be heard if your decision goes against theirs. Besides this, how is one guy watching the clock & another guy watching the shooter going to help to resolve anything?

So, to answer your question - no, I have never done this and no, I will never do this.
