I don't think it's bad. After all, the engine was getting a lot of fuel before the Turbo spooled up.
Just a word of caution, your Torque Converter can very rapidly built up a huge amount of heat when you stall it that way. I think it's best to avoid stalling it that much without a few minutes for cool down.
