It is traditional, but to be honest I don't use it much. And the reason being that, I feel it is more of a liability, getting broken, bitten, grabbed on to or getting caught up in the Gi. As we all intergrate different MA into our training, the general feeling is the same everywhere, don't leave anything hanging out, whether thats a leg arm or finger. I have been on the receiving end of someone grabbing my finger and also in grappling I've had someone pry my finger off of my hold, and then really do a number on my finger. It hurts.
