No I have not tried this. Granted, this may get traffic in to the
loopback interface, it will very likely still be going to the wrong
address, at least if EBTables can not NAT it.
However this still leaves a lot of things to be desired compared to
DNATing traffic originally destined to the ether interface in to the
loopback interface.
(Again, this is just a theoretical discussion and as such I can not
readily test things at the moment.)
