I agree completely - during your studies you have tons of free time. Once you graduate and have to find a job all that disappears, and you may not have enough energy to pursue your ideas after spending time at work. If there's a project you can't get out of your head, there's no better time to work on it than now. Even if it doesn't grow into anything useful, you'll learn tons of stuff and you'll be able to apply that knowledge in the future.
