I agree with you to a degree, and I would definitely look forward to viewing this information on your site.

Most people don't know what they're doing, and I think the message of "don't clean your coins" is just put forth to protect our numismatic treasures. I don't want a guy to read on a site "Yeah, I clean my coins by dipping them in x acid", because he may not understand that that's what we do with silver coins only, and he may do it with his 1794 half cent. Also, stuff like "a quick dip" might mean 30 seconds to him, where it should only be two seconds.

I suppose if the information were detailed enough, the general public could find it useful, but I would still be a little worried.
