perfect... no need to mess with detuning strings and removing bridges..... very handy, Rob...
next best would be a hard tail bridge that just lifts off by removing a few screws... changing PU's with string throughs is a baitch...;)

You should make that model available for sale, Rob.
As often as some guys around here change pickups, it could be a big seller for you.

moving the saddles forward and leaving them there (intonation is not an issue on a test guitar!) gives free access to the four mounting screws ... but, the strings need to get slacked and capo'd, bridge unscrewed/removed, test pup screwed in and leads routed to the control cavity and soldered or clipped, bridge screwed down, strings brought back to tune - then test the pup.  with pup rear routing, i just screw in each pup and clip on the alligator clips - instant testing.
