Call me cynical, but I want some sort of check on majority governments - regardless of which party forms them. - so this idea continues to get a big thumbs down.
That said, I'm not sure why various pundits, columnists, and vote pandering party leaders bring this up as regularly as they do. The sort of constitutional reform required to make it happen is about as likely as Elizabeth May forming the next government.
