Pipe tobacco stored in humidor

I tend to enjoy my cigars more often than I do my pipe but when I find a pipe tobacco that I like, I tend to buy 2 or 3 ounces of it for future use.

I'm wondering what the forum's thoughts are regarding storing a tin of pipe tobacco in a humidor. Clearly, the cedar could affect the taste of the pipe tobacco if left there a long time but are there any other down sides or better ideas?

Thanks in advance.
