Funny you should mention that. I was just thinking about what the main 
contribution to RS232 jitter would be. For fpga purposes I've seen a lot of 
verilog/vhdl code that does precisely what you descibe. Use a clock that's 8 
times the bit clock, which is useful for oversampling the RX. Funny that UART 
implementations do the exact same thing.
