DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Asynchronous multiplayer

I've searched and checked the wiki and found nothing about this, any reason it wouldn't work?

Some friends and I want to try a game where we take turns, each playing our own character, co-op with the others' retired (or "resting awhile") characters.

What I mean is, when it's your turn, you start a new Adv game, resume as your own retired character rather than create a new one, recruit the other players' characters as companions (assuming you can find them in-world), and off you go.  When your turn's up (unsure yet how that's decided), you retire out, zip the save and pass it off.  Meanwhile we'd keep each other posted with stories/screens, like a regular fort mode succession game.

Anyone know any reason why this wouldn't work, or would be impractical/unplayable?  Thanks!
