It would have to do so selectively, and it would be fairly slow (atleast with the current implementation), but yes, that could also work. The question then is: what __file__ do you put into the code? The original one, or the cached one? I'd vote for the cached copy, so that you get sensible output in tracebacks. It probably should also mark the cached copy read-only on disk, so that people won't attempt to edit it. If off-by-one errors are acceptable, it could also try to put a first-line comment "GENERATED" into it.
