IMHO this would mix the functionalities you have in an .org file and
those you have in an agenda too much.

Another problem is that you will end up with duplicated headlines.

But if I get the gist of the idea correctly, it sounds like something
I've been thinking about: a way to collect headlines from an agenda
view, then capture or refile them under a new headline.  Not exactly
what you are thinking about, but based on the core idea of collecting
more easily.
