I sincerely doubt that, since perl simply doesn't store the
neccessary 
info to correctly locate all the right pads to do the
substitution in 
(especially in complex cases involving closures and/or
recursion iirc)

Like I said, I tried to do it with D::A, but because I came
to the 
conclusion that it can't be done correctly in all cases, I
chose to it 
locally only, rather than globally-but-wrong-in-some-cases.
