Won't it make more sense to send the shaders to the developers? I have no idea how the driver does this patching but if the game is patched won't that be then easier when a new version of the game or a game with same engine is created? I remember that for a game you had to rename it's binary so the driver would be tricked to apply an optimization, I do not remember the details but the slow game was using same engine as first one.
