Default Onions seeds

Having a relatively large number of onion seeds from my decorative
onions this year, I wondered if anyone had ever tried using them to coat
bread, in the manner of poppy seeds? I confess I no longer bake my own
bread, but enjoy briefly re-baked bread from the freezer. It would be
fairly easy to adhere onions seeds to a loaf or, for those who do bake
their own bread, put the seeds in the loaf. Cheese and onion seed
bread, for instance. It could catch on.

Are the seeds, perhaps, too hard to use in cooking? I've cracked teeth
on hard seeds in bread too often to risk it without the say-so of a
friendly guinea pig ;~).

Hope somebody here has explored the possibility!
