Combining Hammersmith & City with Wimbledon branch?

Has this ever been considered? Trains could run from
Barking/Whitechapel to Edgware Road and then on to either Hammersmith
or Wimbledon. Abolish the Circle Line to get the extra C stock
necessary, and use the spare D stock trains for Kensington
Olympia-Tower Hill-Barking District Line services.
Would there be enough C stock trains to do this? Probably have to
terminate some at Edgware Road.
I think it would be a good idea for the wimbleware branch to be shown
as a seperate line on the diagrams in the same way the H&C was hived
off from the Met years ago. Using D stock its not possible to have a
through route to Edgware road therefor that branch shouldn't be part
of the District line. Having it shown as a seperate line would make it
less confusing for all IMO though god knows what colour is left that
they could use.
