I've done this kind of thing, but one has to be really motivated. What I did once was to load the image into the InterpreterSimulator (takes time and space). Then you write do-its to find the oop of the class in question, then you enumerate its instances looking for one with sumborphs==nil. Then you patch it and write the image back out. It would likely take a day to do it. If you found it amusing, then you would probably leave a bunch of valueable tools behind, but otherwise I'd fall back on the changes file.
