Yes, this looks good! I use the macro in a slightly more complex situation, so my "real" syntax is
\MyLine[<number>][yes|no][<Speaker>]{<line content>}
where yes|no determines whether the number should be displayed or not and the third argument (the speaker) is optional; it it's there, it will be typeset in the space at the beginning of the line. Complex, but makes it easy to read my source...
Thanks!
Thomas
