Ramnivas, sorry to have to contradict you (and thanks for triggering my memory) 
but there has been some work on a tool that does just that: pointcutdoctor ( 
http://pointcutdoctor.sourceforge.net/ ) by Ye and De Volder. I used it in its 
early incarnations and it proved to be quite helpful. Sadly it appears not to 
have been updated since 2008, but it might still work, so maybe this could be 
of some use ...
