I would like to point out a general consideration.
Semantic patches can be developed for some use cases. I find that
corresponding efforts are only useful if such a generalised patch can be
applied to a source code base several times.
I doubt that you want to try it out for a single source code adjustment.
It might be that a need will appear to perform a transformation once
more a bit later, doesn't it?
Regards,
Markus
