Well, I have to say, that I think that is not efficient, and in some circumstances may really test you unnecessarily.
If there is even a ghost of a chance of a missed, you should not only know what you are planning, having discussed it with ATC, but should have it quickly available to you. In the GNS days I would have another flight plan in memory that I could load quickly. Now with the IFD, I program in what I'm planning, after the published miss (or whatever ATC assigns) in the flightplan.
You don't want to be thinking and fiddling close to the ground in IMC.
