Say it loud and say it proud! This is my thinking also. If the quilt top is machine stitched and the quilting is machine stitched and the first seam of the binding is machine stitched, why not finish the binding with machine stitches? I know that traditionally seams are generally hidden (at least that's true with clothing), but all the quilting stitching is right out where you can see it.
