You are completely right. I know the effects of this are going to change the way students think about learning and anticipating being responsible for what they learn.
I hope that they apply this method with music theory (like post-tonal analysis, orchestration, etc) and other complex musical subjects! That would be the biggest aid to any music faculty.
This is a brilliant concept in the making. Unfortunately, the bad may outweigh the good eventually. It seems to me that the idea is good, the execution = bad. This could take anywhere from a few years to a few decades. I do not specifically know how they plan on compiling all of it and making the way in which the material is presented fluid - even if there is an "editor" (who, by all means, must be a genius; or God) to oversee the end result.
Well, besides that, I think it will be interesting to see what happens.

Calculus - definitely!
