I've seen this approach work for permie roles, but I've also seen it backfire spectacularly and then watched as people have had to back track on their threats to leave - only offer this kind of ultimatum if you (a) are sure you have got the new role, (b) don't care about pissing off the client, and (c) are certain that you want to leave.
