+Summary: Add convenience-function ReturnParameterInstructions
+
+I’ve got a feature request for Cecil ;)
+
+I’d like to have a function that delivers the last IL-Instructions that 
+are used as parameters for a given method call.
+
+Example: I’ve got a MethodBody body containing the instructions
+
+Now I’d like a function: public Instruction[] ReturnParameterInstructions 
+(Instruction callInstruction)
+
+if the callInstruction would be a call to a function with (int, String, 
+String) Parameters the ReturnParameterInstructions would return an Array 
+containing the three instructions that were the (first/) last 
+Instructions to modifiy that value
+
+Rationale:
+Cecil is often used to analyze existing class libraries. The described 
+function would be useful for analyzing the behaviour of libraries. It 
+would especially allow for an easy way to determine if a function gets 
+called with constant/static parameters.
