Absolutely!! Turning “pre-symptomatic transmission” into “pre-obviously-symptomatic but post-subtly-symptomatic transmission” would be extremely valuable. That would (partially) replace the job currently being done (poorly in some places) by contact-tracing, testing, and/or wholesale population-wide physical distancing / lockdowns. I say this effort should be a high priority for anyone who can contribute to it.
