No. Not cool, at least for me. For one, I never liked the character of Zelda and I would especially be annoyed to play as her. I mean it would provide an interesting feel to the game as mentioned but I wouldn't go for it. She just always pissed me off and I never found her personality any interesting. I'm a girl too and I wouldn't even go for the "girl hero saves guy" idea. It would be degrading to link as well. Idk it could work but the whole thing just seems terrible to me.
