It's very common in the sense that everybody knows what it means, and you do see it frequently in mainline publications.
For instance, here's an example from a reputable source just now:
"And when Lee was sworn in, Kennedy posed for pictures with Clinton, Vice President Al Gore and Attorney General Janet Reno. Yes, the remarkably unangry senator from Massachusetts showed up at the White House to celebrate a devious maneuver that evaded the constitutional requirement of Senate consent."
