That is actually a really good idea. This is happening to me too, it's

irritating.

If you have a pull-out sprayer on a hose, and if the sprinkler handle
isn't fully seated, splashing water can leak down the side of the
sprayer handle, along the hose, and drip off the bottom of the "U" in
the hose under the cabinet. Likewise, if the sprayer handle seat isn't
firmly tightened in the penetration, water can leak under the edge of
the seat and drip. If your gasket under the entire faucet assembly is
corroded, rotted, etc. water can leak into wherever there are sink
penetrations under the faucet assembly. In each case, you may only
experience these leaks, when there's a lot of un-sponged splash water in
the immediate vicinity of the faucet assembly or sprayer handle seat.
