I've not seen this done, but it's a cool idea and I like your design :) 
  If you haven't seen maxdesign's definition list section, it's well 
worth a look:

http://www.maxdesign.com.au/presentation/definition/

It's also worth noting the search engine info on that page about <dl>s

The W3C specs seem to say it's okay to use definition lists to markup 
name value relationships:

"Another application of DL, for example, is for marking up dialogues, 
with each DT naming a speaker, and each DD containing his or her words."

And people seem to be using them as such (or, at least, I do!)
