I like this idea. Smothering a pin/bolt/rivet with epoxy might really help it to hold.
The problem with this particular joint is the massive strain it goes under when you sprint or get out of the saddle; you're thrashing your legs down like you're trying to pull the frame apart. Unfortunately, that is what happened to me.
