I build most of my multi-pitch anchors with the rope, whether swapping leads or not. I like the dynamic quality of the anchor and minimalist gear approach. Leading in blocks is actually pretty easy, but I doubt it would be as fast as the standard pre-distributed cordalette method for most people, since the second needs a whole new rope anchor under the leader's.
