Be a scary ride for anyone going in the tank all the way. It's probably safer if they ride up in the orbiter for the journey, and then dock with the tank when they reach their destination. That way, if something goes wrong with one of the boosters, or in the lab, the shuttle can detach without leaving anyone to their doom.
It's an alternative to a full Gagarin class with the shuttle(or external think-tank) piggybacking on it, though I'm not sure who'd use it then, since most shuttle users have, or are getting, Gagarins
