If the WinUAE program supports AGA thru emulation why isn't it possible to write a program or emulator that will run on the current stock of Graphics card for the Amiga that will emulate the AGA chips on an ECS amiga or the new Indivision ECS.  

Has then been tried before?

This has been done before. In fact, an AGA emulator was released into the public domain years ago from 17-Bit in the UK I believe. It takes quite a bit of computing power to use; as I recall, you needed an '040 and plenty of RAM.

For what it's worth, there is a PD program called "Soft AGA" that was distributed by 17-Bit/Quartz PD. It is on disk 4511.
