This sounds well, but it will not fit all cases. Suppose the dealer does not lead the trumps, but starts a suit, so as to get dummy in, and then dummy goes to trumps and you have to discard. How are you going to show that the suit which the dealer led is your suit? Even if your partner has gone over the make, you should still discard your strong suit.
