Be very careful with doing it that way. I have found it leads to bar crashing, overpulling and riding the bar down syndrome.

In my opinion the sooner you can get the athlete to catch the bar in the rock bottom position doing the full movement the better. In this era of drug testing the athlete who who has to lift the bar the shortest distance in relation to their receiving position is going to be hard to beat.
