Certainly, and I did this partly out of laziness.  But I also notice that
midl generates the header every time as well.  At least, "midl /client
stub foo.idl" generates foo.h as well as foo_[ip].c and dlldata.c.  And
that brings up a further question:  should widl flags be made (somewhat)
compatible with midl ones to ease porting?

Well, there can be a set of compatible flags, but it's very important
that there is a way to generate each individual file separately,
otherwise it's pretty much impossible to write a correct makefile.
