I know many biz travellers who do it. And I've done it a number of times myself while travelling on business.
Especially on heavy business flights, with few leisure pax, I find that willingness to VDB is very appreciated.
Though when I travel and am not headed straight to work or a meeting, I dress in jeans and such, so I may be one of those "leisure solo" types you're talking about.
