This is essentially Drop D tuning but up a whole step because rather than tune the low E to a D, he's raising all the other strings up a step with the capo.

Yes, and use a 2nd capo for the low E string if you want to capo further up the neck. A friend uses this all the time. What is great is that your chord fingerings don't have to change, except to thumb wrap (or mute) the low E string to the 2nd fret when playing chords that require the 'E' note.
