Well, such a tool would ideally be smarter than that, such that 
you would run EXPLAIN and compare to the previous plan and 
only run EXPLAIN ANALYZE if the plan changed. One could even 
decrement rpc slowly and find out at one points it changes, 
which would be more interesting than testing arbitrary numbers.
Would lead to some really sweet graphs as well. :)
