I do not think that you would be able to easily bond/glaze the window in place; I think that a pond liner would have too much flex and it may be difficult to get a completely flat surface so one would have difficulty getting a proper seal with silicone. Its a cheap way to go as long as you were able to securely glaze in a window.
To be fair, I wasn't suggesting making a *tank* out of pond-liner, I have a glass tank from Miracles. The pond-liner is a catch-all for water getting on the floor, to protect the nice hardwood flooring underneath.
