I really like it. Plus, I think it will help come up with much more meaningful subject lines. That is a good idea. I really like it.

Depending on the sensitivity of the email, I'll save the recipients until just before I send (this is trickier when replying to an email). I do find it beneficial to put the subject in early on. This forces me to decide what I intend to say in the email (rather than ramble on in the body). This might prompt an phone call or an IM instead of an email. Good ideas.

I've found this workflow a few times on my own. After preparing a file for sending, I frequently drag that file to my email icon on the dock. That opens a new message with the file attached, so I'm halfway to the process you describe. Whenever I compose a really important or sensitive email, I try to do so with nothing in the recipients field. As you say, that's a great safeguard against hitting "send" before you're ready.
