Cyanobacteria Good or Bad?

Have recently been reading about actually cultureing Cyano, seperate from the display.My limited understanding is, cyano, fixes nitrogen,consumes phosphates and C02. This sounds like a good thing! Is it the terrifying arrival in our tanks that has kept this habit so unexplored?
If a cyanofuge with bad lighting, slow water flow,ribbed or roughened growth areas were constructed, with a filter sock and carbon for containment and toxin removal, would this be effective?? nutrient export would then be a matter of scraping off the muck and happily overfeeding the tank again.
