Nice in theory, but the AI escorts do not hear other AI ships.
"Lurking" under a large merchant is also a good idea, in theory, but how are you planning on keeping station under a zig-zagging merchant? And so what if you managed to? The escorts would still know where you are, so you would end up sailing across the Atlantic like that, without ever escaping.
