I added an entry in Org hacks:
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-hacks.html#sec-1-11-1

I don't think it should be in core, as it is a small conveniency
that can be surprising -- the user could expect the preview to
happen in the src buffer, while it happens in the Org buffer...
also, adding more keybinding like this may raise the issue of
conflicting keybinding with the current src buffer mode.

Thanks for sharing this!
