Well, go commit yourself because it's that simple. It's all in the software... the hardware is all in place. A speedy mass storage driver and flexible number of Wii Menu pages (maybe a categorization option) would be all you really need to make the whole experience work.
If Nintendo is uncomfortable with the idea of a Wii HDD being plugged into a PC and read, they could always require the drive to be reformatted with an encrypted file system keyed to one Wii, like Cable DVRs use. But then again, if they were uncomfortable with the user accessing Wii data on their PC, they'd scramble the SD cards too.
Also, I'm one of those whose Wii memory is full. I've spend many hours just shuffling data and channels around to enable the purchase of new software, and I've had it. If Nintendo wants any more money from their best customers (those who have already purchased enough software to fill their Wii) then they had better make it easy for us to buy.
