I'm more familiar with the practice of verbing nouns and adjectives, which is very common (a famous Calvin&Hobbes strip ends with the punchline "verbing weirds language"). The opposite practice of nouning verbs has a very different feeling; I'd say it's almost pedantic, or very dry; not as lively as verbing, for sure.
