We've been doing that, on 7200s, and have been quite happy with it.

Now we're using a 7603/SUP720 as peering point router ("hardware 
forwarding, hardware IPv6, HW control plane rate limiting, etc.")
and it doesn't *have* MAC accounting :-(

Do you know whether that's a hardware limitation, or just "not 
implemented yet"?  In the latter case, I could open a TAC case to
make "customer demand" visible, but if the hardware just can't do it,
we'll need to go for some workaround on netflow/peer-as basis (which
really isn't the same thing, as we have neighbour ASes with multiple
routers on the same exchange).
