That would be fine, provided that you bear a number of points in mind:

1. We had to disable idea moderation because (despite two public calls) no one 
stepped up to do the job, so all ideas are posted. GCI students helped us 
clean a bit, though
2. If wishlists are dumped there, unless someone takes a peek every now and 
then (notice that I don't mean developers: I mean any contributor) it's not 
going to make a difference (rug under the carpet). 

That said, voting etc might be useful to do some pre-screening on feature. 
Although votes are not a useful metric per se, my last experiment with scoring 
Brainstorm ideas put genuinely useful ideas at top.

But keep in mind point 2 from above: if it's just a dumping ground, you'll get 
rid of a frustration to get another one in.

Also, if there is a plan on using Brainstorm as is, perhaps some pubicity 
might be needed (currently it's very low on the radar).
