I agree to your view that the semantic patch language does not belong to the category of imperative programming languages. (Patch rules are specified in a format that is similar to the output of the command "diff".) Would you like to enable the development of such rules by entries after a prompt? > You would still have to formulate a complete semantic patch, > before you would see any effects. I suggest to construct and apply semantic patches by additional commands that can be executed by an OCaml interpreter. This approach would provide an alternative and interactive way for change specifications.
