This sounds like a great idea. Wouldn’t more people do it if it were convenient?

I’m not Catholic, just an outsider viewpoint here.....

Not really, IMO. Confession isn't utilized as much as it used to be any more. You can verify this yourself if you go into a Catholic church on Saturdays, maybe around 4-4:30 (depending on when the Vigil Mass will be celebrated, Confessions are usually offered before that at most parishes) and you will probably see an empty Confessional (a little green light above a door means that Confessional has a priest in it but no one confessing their sins).
