I like this idea, indeed in my init file I've something similar:

This is smarter than your function in the sense that it looks at
current macro to determine the extension (didn't test it, but I think
your implementation would open "article.sty" instead of the more
sensible "article.cls" with point on "article"). You can try to
improve your implementation stealing my code ;-)
