Frankly I doubt it will need to be as large as they say, but a decent station that allows Heathrow to be served from multiple directions and has high speed TGV links to the Midlands and south west would definately be a good idea.
Now I just want to see plans for Stansted to be served by an East-West line and for Luton to actually get a proper rail station at its airport rather than the current cobble up.
