Does anyone use mega-ohm resistors to discharge monitors?

I used to work on high-voltage industrial equipment. When I would test high-voltage capacitors, I used a resistor to safely discharge them. You don't get a snap because it discharges at a low current. I bet it would also be easier on the monitor itself.
