For sure. I have often been tempted to spend the day in London in the middle of a very cheap "Advance to Timbuctu" journey from where I live. The availability of convenient and flexible "+connections" travel is very vulnerable to attack by ATOC and that's why I haven't abused it.
The strange thing is that there are occasions, on advances, where specified trains are explicitly stated (even where there are no reservations on those trains), so if there was a will to impose specific connections they could quite easily do it even with the existing systems. It would just then make the traveller's choices far more restricted which is not a good thing.
