As you say it's an idea and like some ideas on here it will appeal to some people and not to others.
The proof of the pudding is in the eating and nobody has cooked it yet.
Personally I'd like to see the idea made and if it becomes in my power to do so and nobody else does it I'll do it myself so people can put it in or leave it out or do it differently at their own discretion.
Fett in AOTC is a fan service when he isn't being a bounty hunter (I'm fine with him being hired to kill Padme, the clone template buisness was the fan service as was little boy Boba).

Shooting someone holding a grenade is a sure fire way of getting yourself and everyone else in the room blown up.
Not with the right shot. ;)
Shooting some holding a primed grenade and deactivating it would have to be a special shot indeed (I wonder where Fett was in 1963).
