That would be great.  I've thought that it would be useful for a while,
but haven't had any time or signs of actual users who would need to use
such a thing to actually go through the trouble of implementing it.  The
Jimple Parser should be able to do this if it's suitably modified, but I'm
not sure exactly what modifications would be needed.
