I've thought about this for a while. I didn't go to the trouble of actually inventing the function, but just the fact that it ought to be possible in principle is sufficient to change your perspective on some things. Most notably, parameter count based information criteria.
AIC, BIC, et al. need to be reformulated for each model in which they're used, and not all parameters can be treated as fungible.
