It is considered a best practice by SAP.

We are using the MDM views to read data via BODS. The views are not totally comprehensive and data is stored like “Data1 ; data 2”, so some formatting and post-processing is required.

But it works, fast and without noticable load on MDM.

Don’t know if it is commonly used.
