Yes, it would work in some situations, but it requires you to use blocks in general which might not be desired. Furthermore, you'd have to restrict a block to contain exactly one message (at least in situations where you know you're using extended templates (as percieved by the receiver, which might not always be possible to know)).

Also, the constraint list would have to be extended to prohibit the bytes that constitute the extension from looking like the start of a message, which is rather tricky in the general case. It's probably solvable by always adding two pad bytes at the start of the extension the first always having the value 0xc0, and the second having the value of some unused tid.

This last constraint is not necessary if you enforce the one message per block constraint for all messages. But if a decoder make use of this constraint it will suddenly behave in a non standard way.
