Yes. I have been thinking exactly that. We could re-use the aggregator module's RSS parsing routines to suck in important announcements and show them on a dashboard (main administration page).
For our hosting environment I am writing a module that does exactly that.
My plan for using it, is a tip of the day for admins. but we can use it for this too.
The hard part, is getting a proper XML parser out :) Ive started this, and its in my sandbox, but RSS/XML parsing on php < 5 is a nightmare :) and aaggregator.module is far too specific and needs nearly complete rearchitecturing if it wants to become a general RSS parser. XML gurus please hop on :)
