That's an interesting suggestion!

My main motivation for the initial set of recent bugpoint patches was to see how easy it would be to fix a few pain points I've seen in the past (and to kill some time on a plane). The initial patches were quite small, because I do not have any experience with the bug point code, the test coverage is really limited and I wanted to avoid breaking bugpoint. But I think once the first set of patches are committed and baked a bit, I would like to explore the direction suggested a bit more.
