Back in ye old days, American muscle car guys used to do this, mainly to get more weight on the rear for drag run traction.
I don't think having a battery inside is a problem, just a gnats fart worth of hydrogen might come out of them during a big recharge. The cars' vents draw air out the back anyway. I believe some oddball sports cars came with batts inside anyway, like the Opel GT & MGB (?)
Interesting HEK mentions his Civic Si, I've got an RSX (kinda the same thing) and I thought of doing a batt relocate on it but haven't yet. Now those are real front heavy, like ~65%ish on the front

I went from a 2000 Civic Si to a 2002 RSX-S, loved it as well but since I had just remarried and all of a sudden had kids, I went to a 2005 Acura TL manual. I always wanted a 2 seater, funny how some people have the same tastes and buy the same cars throughout their lives. Now single I use the passenger seat to place my headphones and gym gear.
