Would a payment propogate through the node quickly enough to make it practical for something like this?

That is a good question. How fast do payments propagate? Has anybody ever timed a payment?

I had one take about 30 seconds to show up, and then 5 minutes for the first verification last night.  I've seen it much faster before though.
