It's about as extreme as adding the full text of blog posts in RSS feeds all over the world. Some people may find it useful, others may find it a waste of bandwidth. How about adding *two* RSS feeds: a 'short' one, with the titles and a link to the real advisory, and a 'long' one with the full text? This way the reader of the feed has a choice of picking up what they find more useful :-)
