I also don't understand why the employer would consider it. Think of what would happen if the employee quit, was fired, became incapacitated or died: - The employer wouldn't have access to the repository that contained their intellectual property. - The employee would still have access to the employer's intellectual property. If there was litigation, it would be difficult to explain to a court that some of this stuff belongs to the employer but the rest belongs to the employee. The employer might end up owning all of it.
