Well, it might be a good vehicle for ITN to produce, and to pay alongside Channel 4. Or split the purchase of a breakfast show to one, or more, media outlets e.g. newspapers. Because it might just actually be a huge success [or a failure as you lot point out].
It would make me watch. Actual news, instead of the dross of GMTV, and for C4 to rival BBC Breakfast. And the ITV Morning News could 'advertise' it when the programme ends..."Switch over to Channel 4 for ITN Breakfast News" instead of "GMTV is next". GMTV has nothing to do with ITN apart from occasionally sharing material !

I think you're blurring the distinction between ITN/ITV/GMTV/Channel 4 there. ITN has no connection to anything really - ITV and Channel 4 are their clients. So the Morning News is ITV's and thus they are not going to promote a programme on Channel 4, regardless of whether ITN produce it or not. They promote GMTV at the end of the Morning News because they want to keep people tuned to their channel, not hand the viewers to the opposition.

Indeed gone are the days when ITN would tell you to switch to Channel 4 for the next news bulletin from them, or when ITN would promote The Channel Four Daily rather than TV-am and Good Morning Britain. Don't forget ITV own 40% of ITN, so they have alot of input into what they produce.
ITN is now a Production company, not simply another ITV owned operation like it used to be.

you may have a problem with a live backdrop of the London Eye
you would be facing into the sun
that was the problem with the One Show Pilot, the window was south-west facing so they had to blank off one side of the from the setting sun
most views whether a CGI backdrop from a camera or an actual window tend to be facing north for this reason
