It probably wouldn't breathe well, definitely not good for an area like
here with high humidity.

I went and read the msds, specs, etc. Supposedly non-toxic in a fire. 
Material is not an irritant, you can get it on your skin while applying.

Should not breathe the dust from cutting it. Duh.

I just remember so many stories from some ancient thread about 
completely screwing up a masonry/plaster cavity wall by filling it. 
Dewpoint in the wall changes and water builds up inside or outside the 
foam (or other insulating material) and causes issues with the plaster, 
the masonry or the foam itself, in breakdown of the materials and/or 
growth of mold.

There is supposed to be air circulating in a cavity wall.
