This seems like a good idea. Another benefit I see with your idea is the quality of those textbook threads as they get modified by the teacher due to the subsequent posts in those other threads. One simply needs to read the locked textbook thread without digging through many posts for answers.
As for those concerned with math, Hester's textbook seems to go out of the way to avoid math and atempts to get the reader to experience what scientists see. This may be only a freshman level course, however.
