Sketches and references based on assembled parts: Good or Bad idea?

$

There have been several times, when I come to a dead end, that I design parts' features based on assembly file.

 

For example, if part A has a peculiar curve or section, I fisrt assemble that part B , put it strongly into placement and then I activate it and using part A lines as references, I sketch my details on Part B.

 

The simplest example coming into mind... I had recently an extrude feature on a assembled part. I went to assembly, activated that part and edited the extrude up to a surface of another part. Is there any chance that  I have  problem with regenerating later on?

 

In general, Is it a good or bad idea and what might be the cons!?
