Subject: accuracy of quiescence search

How accurate is the result of the quiescence search? I think that the position
at the end of the quiescence search is very unlikely and only the material score
of this position is interesting. So I would think that it is better to take the
positional score (excluding material score) of the position before the qsearch
and then to add the material score that qsearch returns. Has someone tried this
already? And if so, plays the program then better or worser?
