THat's how I do it, although I've had instructors doing my IPC ding me for not
starting the timer on an ILS. As politely as I can, I remind them that the
times are for a localizer only approach and that if the glideslope screws the
pooch, I'm going missed.

As a flight instructor, I'd ding you on it, too. Now, I don't expect
anyone to convert midstream (I wouldn't do it either), but I've seen
too many pilots get out of the habit of starting the timer at the FAF.
This directly correlates to missing the timer on non-precision
approaches. (I know... I fell into that trap personally, and am still
trying to climb out of it.)
