yes, in fact it will IMHO be much easier than now as you will be able
to just play with cfg in any way you want, without care of handling
the underlying structured expressions.

yes, again see cfgloop.c + cfgloopmanip.c. Also some stuff done on
rtlopt branch loop optimizer could be useful to check.
