No, this is a cool idea.
I thought of something like this back in the 2009 season. Ideally I wanted to run the whole driver station on the DS, because then we wouldn't need that silly Kwikbyte driver station.
However, I didn't have the experience with making homebrew, and now, well, I use LabVIEW.
I suppose you could try running it off DsLinux, if that would make it easier.
Anyways, wikipedia has good info and links on this:
