There's already "C-x b RET", "C-x <right>", "C-x <left>" and probably
several other ways to do what you want, so I see no need to change
C-x 0 in the way you suggest.
C-x 0 currently doesn't care about buffers, only about windows, so your
"extension" doesn't seem very natural to me. A more natural extension
would be to indeed delete the sole window by exiting (or maybe sticking
around waiting for emacsclient connections in case you've started the
emacs-server).
