One thing I am concerned with.

One of my job responsibilities is to peer review tsql code created by developers. I am currently very confident of noticing items that can be improved on or misuses of tsql.  Now, it will be more difficult when a developer submits CLR source to the DBA team to be able to debug/review.  So it seems in my scenario I will need to have a very good understanding of the framework.

You know everyone has been saying who needs development DBA's anymore with the CLR, heck now I say who needs developers anymore, I can do anything.  🙂 Just kidding.
