The University of Pittsburgh Observatory is experimenting with just such an imaging system in one of their major projects, trying to (indirectly) observe planetary systems around nearby stars. They claim that the fiber optics provide so much more resolution than the photography they used before that they may well succeed. Another major advantage to them is that they have been able to automate the search; no more days spent staring at photographs. --david
