For a rinse, instead of water, it is fine. I know the idea or using vinegar or another mild acid is controversial to some, but battery leakage generally creates metal salts. Something either mildly acid or mildly basic can get them into solution, so they can be rinsed off. Isopropyl can dissolve oils, but has little to no effect on any of the corrosive residues. But it's speedy drying is a plus - so it can be use to rinse deposits loosened or dissolved otherwise.
Good luck with it - now THAT would be a nice module for Hanno to work on. But a lot of work on that, and very few of the movements available to strip the displays off of.
