Pico folks do this for years in their web layer. More or less done in
ProxyToys technology. They use it also to assemble the components available
for each incoming request. However, the interesting part is the replay
action. That way the expensive part with all the reflection magic to search
the matching components is replaced the second time simply with the
recordings of the proxy.
