Having done many interviews, I gotta say this is a good question. Open-ended, gives the applicant the opportunity to display their knowledge without looking boastful, gives a good indication of their analytical ability, and most likely gets around stage-fright since they'll be by definition talking about something they're enthusiastic about. And if they can't get enthusiastic about anything with this kind of lead, they're probably just a careerist.
