Do you see a future where this can be extended for VEX/EVEX prefixes?

Yes, in theory. The only reason I would be reticent to do so is that Chris Fallin is working on a prototype for deleting the entire Recipes system, and so I don't know what the future will look like. However if it's not a ton of work and makes the emission-conditions more explicit, that's likely a good idea.

Much cleaner now :slightly_smiling_face:

In light of plans to just delete all of Recipes (yay), do you plan to extend this for inferring REX on memory-operand encodings, or leave it at this? I have a few comments but overall I'm a big fan of getting encodings more precise with less effort.

I don't have any plans currently. I'll see what Benjamin says.
