A design like this was implemented in 2002 with much success for a team I can't remember the name of in 2002 (& I can't find a picture of said bot). Aye. lol
The rules were a bit different, as you were allowed to grab goals that year, but I agree with it being legal for this year as well.
You are only reacting against a surface, & not holding, or attaching if you built something like that.

Don't trust any of us though, only the official FIRST Q&A can answer your question definitively & officially.
