Yes, I have seen it, and I have used it a few times. For some types of modules, I really do like how it separates out the state from the logic itself; as a person who started writing firmware first, and then started logic design, the two-process method can make it feel less like software sometimes.

Everything I've read these days says to use numeric_std (I've read the reasons why, and it makes sense), so I just never even bothered using the std_logic_*signed libraries. I'll check out your MIPS project; I'm intending my next project to be a fully pipelined RISC machine :-)
