attack idea for dragon

First of all I love that dragons do splash damage, even though it's only a .3 tile radius. I was wondering what if a dragon, after its first breath of fire, caused fire damage to accumulate over a short period of time. After every breath a small fire would settle and burning embers would rise from the burning wood and stones from whatever building it is attacking. This would cause extra damage aside from the initial attack, say 30 to 50 extra damage per second. And would only last a bit longer than the attack speed of the dragon, say 2 or 3 seconds.
I thought this would be cool to see on the screen.

In other games a similar effect is called Damage Over Time. They would have to rebalance the initial damage. While I agree the affect of watching a building burning or even better CC troops, is very cool and even works from a lore perspective it might be seen as a nerf or even make the dragon over powered.
