Very interesting work. 

Am wondering: who decides when to intercept the code?  Is this the
compiler at compile time when it processes the "aspect" declaration and
the "pointcuts"?

Am wondering if it would not be better to use a runtime library (like
Cecil) and some runtime support to intercept existing classes, and not
limit the code to what is known at compile time.

Miguel.
