I have done that, but not because I was being mobbed by mobs. The first time was because I kept dying over and over in a cave and kept dropping gazillions of ores and tools that I was determined to bring back to base. For some reason an inordinate amount of mobs kept spawning and killing me as soon as I'd grabbed all my goods, so I got pissed off enough to cheat.
The second time I was constructing an ice tunnel and couldn't be bothered not to work all through the night. I also used MCedit to temporarily remove an overhang that was stopping the water below from icing over.
