Having two small children I think it is a good idea. My wife and I have taken the items out of these clamshell packagings before wrapping the gift for the kids. Some of these toys take ten minutes to remove all the wiring, tape, etc.
My thoughts regarding the comments about returning open packages is that it was Amazon's idea to do this. They will have to figure out how to handle returns.

Agreed, but based on the comments here, that's only half of the problem. The other half is that people won't be able to resell the items as new (in the original packaging) because the packaging is the shipping container and you'll have already opened it.
I don't tend to resell my stuff, so I think that's a small price to pay to eliminate annoying packaging.
