It's definitely easier to talk about coding while you do it.
I make heavy use of voice notes myself.
A transcription of those voice notes isn't something I've found useful. I have one, since it's just a little script but there is a very good reason that "stream of consciousness writing" isn't how we do ... anything.
I'm very curious to see how this can be used but I'm not immediately convinced, you generate commit comments while you write code, documentation is a completely separate thing.
A stream of comments on the why of some parts of code, for people who screencasted the development, would be useful. You could reorganize that stuff and get a really nice set of data about the reasons for code evolution.
That's not user facing documentation however, and providing design docs as documention, especially as stream of consciousness design comments seems like it might not be what people expect or want.
