Smite is very useful for this. I play Jungle Rengar and sometimes I need to smite a minion to land a bola but usually there are 2 or more minions in the way. But if you bring smite to the lane the oppourtunity cost is really high because of the survivability and kill potential that flash brings and the utility in exhaust. It's good and viable but it doesn't follow the maximal utility principal so it probably wont "become a thing".
