The instruction timing is different.
It could be done, it would take a lot of work.
I guess if it was slowly migrated it would be handy, some of my z180
code
would be seriously broken over timing issues (instruction and wait
state etc
would all have to be accounted for)
MMU and other peripherals would be a straight bonus for use with the
existing z80 core, the only immediate instruction would probably be
the
out0.
