I've seen that build a couple times now. It works if he gets snowballed, but as soon as he starts going down he usually doesn't get back up.
The problem with Kassadin is that he's a fairly high-priority target with very poor survivability. Riot refuses to work actual survivability into him -- understandably so -- which is why he will never be the melee DPS caster they want him to be. The idea of silence -> port -> slow -> auto-attack is fine in theory, but if you actually build him hybrid your spells aren't going to get you the kill and you'll just die while you're on CD. I can understand buying a Rageblade on him, but that's about it.
