Neither the Stewards nor the Gondorian citizenry would have thought that was a good idea.

The Dunlendings had a history of being unfriendly toward the Númenóreans, and the
fact that they were related to the Dead Men of Dunharrow, who had been cursed by Isildur as oath-breakers, probably didn't do them any favors in Cirion's eyes.

Additionally, the Éothéod had proven their friendship with Gondor by aiding them in battle and were much more numerous than the Dunlendings. Having the former closer to Gondor would have been much more attractive than taking a chance with the men of Dunland.
