I like this idea although I can't say I've fished glide baits (other than the banana plug) much.
I would wonder if one advantage to darters is that they have better depth control than sinking glide baits. If you bump bottom or a rock you can just back off and they'll rise up over things. The ability to work a plug alternately on the surface and below also seems to attract fish and would seem difficult with a glide bait. Something to try next year and find out, however.
