Yes, it's been done. There should be at least one example on the GMC photo site, and probably also on Mr. ERF's site. The pictures I saw had the piano hinge ~6"(?) back from the front of the hatch. That way most of the bay was opened up and the raised part of the hatch would lean back against the dash and not need any support.
