I agree 200% on this. It is perfect solution for this kind of problems.
Though one detail I already discussed a little on irc - what is INFORMATION gained from disassembly? E.g. is some constant value an information which can be used in the code, even if it isn't documented or it's part of the code and thus needs to be "reinvented"?

You MAY use the INFORMATION to implement the same functionality in ReactOS. You MAY NOT copy (and I'm talking about copy/pasting here) the work/implementation. This can be hard to do since one may think, why would I want to spend hours thinking up a new implementation when I've got a perfectly good one right in front of me? So to avoid this pitfall it is best to describe the functionality in plain English and let another developer implement the functionality using only the English text. A lot of work, but this is exactly why we have copyright. Microsoft did spend even more effort on the original implementation.
