LCD contrast adjustment

I'm experimenting with a 2x16 LCD and, instead of using a 10K pot to adjust
the contrast, I use a 10K resistor with a diode to get the Vo voltage. The
contrast seems fine with the model I got.

Is there any disavantage to this method? The LCD is intended to be used at
normal room temperature.
