I've done something like this, using ordinary
plasterboard (bugle) screws in the join as you
describe, for small repairs. Where the joint isn't
going
to be stressed much (e.g. a decommissioned
ceiling
fan or down-light) I'll plaster between the screws,
remove the screws, then plaster where the screws
were. |

(Where strength is desired, I put large or small
pieces of wood behind the join, and screw into
them; but that's an awkward and obvious solution,
and not intended to knock your idea, which would
be quicker.) |

This is pretty clever and has an strange, unhalfbakerylike aura of practicality. |
