I did this, using openwall's all.gz list as base dictionnary and rockyou as password base. I generated 51 rules to match JtR default rules. I benched it on rootkit.com, against JtR default rules, and all.gz dictionnary. It found 12837 passwords while default rules 11102. Then I used my wikipedia extracted list as the base dictionnary, and it found 17231 passwords against 15404. Also, it ran a bit faster (4:24 instead of 4:44), probably because my rules are really crude and do not try to be smart. I believe this is promising, especially for rules that have been entirely generated. The next step will be to include more rules in my set, and to improve a lot the preprocessing performance. I would like to include all replacement rules (sxy) but this would be way too much data to crunch given the current state of my tools. I'm not sure this mailing list is the best forum to document this, so I will probably switch to some blog for those who are interested.
