DC3?

Last night as I was drifting off to sleep (and mulling over the numerous drow questions posted on this board) I had a sudden strike of "brilliance". How about some really monster dungeons for the DCC series in the same vein as Tomb of Horrors, Temple of Elemental Evil, Ruins of Undermountain I and II, or even In Search of the Unknown? Something akin to a Dungeon Crawl Classics Campaign (DC3).
The premise would be the same as the typical DCCs, except they would bring characters through a number of character levels (say from level 1 to level 10). They would have more intense plots, deeper dungeons, even more fiendish tricks and traps, and would pretty much last more than 6 months worth of gaming*.
Is there enough interest to warrant such a product?
*1 gaming session of 4-5 hours per week for 6 months or more. At an average of 30 minutes per encounter (combat encounters could take longer and quick room searching takes far less), this would equate to being around 250 to 300 encounters per DC3.
