Like Ken, I fly where the wind howls at times. I have done what you described but not intentionally. When we have a fly in I make sure there is something in the air all the time because we get hundreds of spectators. The wind was getting it one year and nobody was flying so I broke out my Goldberg Ultimate bipe. May not seem like the best choice for wind but it is actually one of the best planes to fly in the wind. After my flight I brought it around and flew it in for a descent landing. My habit after landing this plane is to give it full up before taxi. This makes it easier to steer cross wind with the extra weight pushing the tail wheel down. So after my landing and the plane came to a stop I pulled full up getting ready to taxi in. Well as soon as I pulled up it jumped in the air about 2'. Luckily the 1.20AX came gave me good throttle response and I was able to fly out of it and land again. Had the OS stumbled it would have meant squatted LG or over on it's back with who knows what damage.
The thing I would caution for anybody trying to do this is the wind speed. It can gain or loss 5-10mph without notice in a split second. The gaining is not so bad, but the 5-10mph less at low alt can turn one back into a kit in a hurry.
