As I was re-reading my first response, I see that I neglected to say that I don't think many (any??) people who stutter would opt to substitute signing for speaking - at least in any kind of extensive way. I have, however, had a handful of parents of children who stutter ask me about sign language as a (temporary)alternative speech (i.e., until the child learns more effective fluency management skills). In line with what you both have suggested, this has not seemed like a very appealing solution to me!
