I can see (hear) it now:

Traffic in your two o'clock .......
Pass behind the 737 on taxiway A ........
Take next taxiway on your right and proceed ........
Yes Captain our wing tip is clear ......

Yes I know there are GPS moving maps and they probably will have cameras, but I still think it is a foolish idea.
