Based on Google's culture (or what I have heard about it), I don't think this is surprising.
It also lets her get introduced to the people at Yahoo! who have ideas, those that are still passionate about the company, and those that will make a difference.

Email would be far more efficient to deliver and review ideas on their merits. Open door is more about gauging the political climate and finding out who will be a follower from the get-go, who is star struck, etc.

I once happened to walk past the open door to the office of the Director of the CIA. I briefly considered walking in to say, "Hi," but then I thought better of it.
