The best solution for this is traction control.
I don't like either LSD on snow or ice. Clutch type will induce oversteer (which I've experienced first hand, many times, on my AWD car with an open front and clutch type rear) and a torque biasing will usually act as an open diff.
Answering this in another way, a torque biasing LSD probably won't hurt, but it probably won't do much to help in snow and ice. But it would be a lot of fun on dry roads. A clutch type can lead to instability in slippery conditions, which, in a mid-engine car could be dangerous.
