Apparently they are very seriously considering it, at the cost of one targeted Titan flyby during the primary mission -- although it isn't clear yet just how close they may come, as compared to the original untargeted flyby of 33,000 km:

The decision will be made tomorrow. If they go, there will be targeted flybys of Tethys, Hyperion and Dione within a month of each other, and of Rhea only about a month later.
