Do we have a sane way to (partially) execute optimizers at -O0 without screwing
up with the pass manager too much? Probably they can be talked into, but might
require some work. The idea is neat though, and I prefer it over introducing a
specific pattern-matching language (which sounds like over-engineering for such
a side feature).
