Aside from the possibility of fuel starving, there is the increased risk of an inside wing stall. If the inside wing stalls on an approach, which happens at a lower AOA/higher speed due to the affect of the aileron, no device or procedure is likely to be of much help, not even Jim Frantz's AOA. The best protection is don't fly uncoordinated turns. If you can't make the approach any other way, go around. Better yet, don't use cross contols at all with the exception of lining up the plane with the runway shortly before a cross wind landing and, of course, acrobatics.
