I see it more as a good code organization than optimization :-)
But, yes I'm for anything sensible along that line that reduces code
duplication.  I already discussed the idea with Benjamin (back in
October 2002) and he was quite positive about it.  It did not happen
because I did not submit the full patch, but if you can over that that
is great! :-)
