Can you cook in a pot with a pot cosy on?

Looking at the Jetboil and Brukit, they come with insulated pots.
The Brupot also comes with a removable neoprene pot cosy, although I can't see anything on Alpkit's site to say whether it needs to be removed when cooking.
Presumably, the integrated stoves and pots have been tested and proved safe so that there's no risk of burning the pot cosy. Mixing and matching other stoves and pots carries the risk of the flames extending beyond the base of the pot and setting fire to the neoprene.
So, assuming I've already got one of these, http://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/hi-gear-bac ... et-p287230, would it be a good idea to buy some of this, http://www.pennineoutdoor.co.uk/wetsuit-neoprene-strip and experiment somewhere safe with a bucket of water to hand?
