[core] How to wrap CPD as a rule #186

Request for information that doesn't necessarily entail changes to the code base
This is more a discussion item that an issue, but I post it here to mention the experts (e.g. @adangel @jsotuyod ) to get some feedback.
I am the creator of the Apex language module and of ApexMetrics which wraps PMD and makes it available to the Code Climate platform for code analysis. PMD and CodeClimate are a perfect match as both work on a per file basis and know the concept of issues of a certain severity.
Besides PMD I am a heavy user of the Copy Paste Detector that is part of PMD. But only as a local standalone tool. I would like to create a CopyPasteRule instead and wonder if that is doable?
As nobody has done it in the last 10 years I fear its just not doable because of tthe way PMD works. I mean Visitor pattern, issues checked per file.
What do you think?
