Yes, that would work.  I can't think of any reason to adopt that
system and not allow people to make up new choices.  It's less
convenient for the government to allow that, but if one cares more
about the convenience of the government than people's freedom to
choose where their money goes, then there would be no reason to adopt
fixed taxes with choice among programs to begin with.
