Well, going down to instruction encoding is a big deal to me. This is 
technically doable but it's useless knowledge to most people (especially if you 
multiply by number or arches). Code is pretty much unreadable without this 
knowledge. What does a jump forward by 12 bytes mean?

This is the main reason why I use multi-platform jit library.

Perhaps this discussion should be moved to a different list.
