Large ACHROMAT for RGB imaging?

I saw an article in a recent SAN reviewing 5" ACHROs and it got me thinking -the costs are not to high considering the appature so:

How about a large ACHRO teamed with a mono CCD and filters instead of the costly ED/APO glass? Are any ACHROs really suitable for AP or would you not get the build quality/focuser etc needed in that format?

Anybody doing this?
