Another way to use this would be to cut only a masking layer from a transparent substrate; then you'd use the result as a photomask to do the PCB print. Photoetching really ISN"T hard, and it takes the same time for a very-complex board as for a simple one, so it scales up better than cutting all the borders of all the traces.
A suitable adhesive to keep copper on a substrate, that takes soldering temperature, would be nice. I don't know of any such adhesive that would allow you to reliably peel off copper after scoring.
