While I do think it's a great interview question, I do think all technical candidacy flows where the person will be programming must have a coding component of some kind. Even just "FizzBuzz" is better than no coding.
That said, I do think it's best to have the person relaxed and at their best, so anything to minimize stress or discomfort will show candidates at their best.
