No, I would never intentionally blind someone with my lights...unless I felt that it was to keep me from harm. I have a helmet light and I have used it to signal drivers who somehow miss all that light coming at them (it happens) and pull out in front of me at stop signs. But I don't do it often or gratuitous.

I also don't worry about blinding drivers for the reasons I've already outlined. It's next to impossible to do so, so why worry about it.
