My guild's run this with three priests before, but we've thus far felt that having the third priest doing normal priestly things (healing or DPS) is more beneficial than just hanging around with the extra Understudy locked down.

It might help to train a greater variety of priests with what they'll need to do to tank this, should the usual priest tanks not be available on a given evening, but other wise I'm not really sure that MCing 3 provides enough of a benefit to yank the third priest from their usual role.

That said, it might be a good strategy on nights when the Naxx lag is particularly cranky. Delayed cast time, more time wasted between a landed MC and actually being able to control the NPC, would certainly shift the balance in favor of keeping an extra Understudy primed to take up aggro. You'd just need to make sure the MC is a bit staggered, so they're not all dropping at the same time, leaving you with nothing MC'd and the raid SOL.
