Haven't tried it, looks plausible.

I don't think so. No GITD product that I'm aware of is soluble, and none is fine enough to be a "pigment based" ink.

Yes this has been tried many times and all that happens is the inkjet gets fouled up. The GITD particles are generally too large. The smallest particles in the 2-8um size might work but the glow would not last long so it would be pretty pointless.

Might be easier to print adhesive onto your paper and add a fine GID powder afterwards. Maybe even NOA could work if you could thin it with a solvent, print it, let the solvent evaporate, put your powder on, and expose it to UV to set it.
