I generally like it when resumes do this, and so do most people I know. I'd be interested to see surveys, I don't think it's anywhere close to universal. That said, I'm typically focused on very measurable domains (e.g. making code faster.)

I've read so many resumes over the last few years that I'm just completely overwhelmed by the practice. In fact I now judge resumes unfavorably if they use it more than very sparely.

The best resumes I read (and the strongest candidates) were ones which were very confident in their skills and experience. They showed a bit of personality (as much as you can).
