"Dynamic binary translation" is the term of art. Which of course VMWare and VirtualPC were doing 20 years ago in dynamically translating x86 ring-0 code to ring-3 code. Dynamizer is translating x86-64 to faster x86-64, but the concept is the same. DynamoRIO was actually talked about for application acceleration. There was at least a PoC that did dynamic function inlining.
