Definitely.  

The auto-focus cameras could be programed to automate much of this. 

I think pro video cameras have pre-set stops at least at the ends (never had one to play with, however). 

Many AF lenses (e.g., Canon) don't even have an infinity stop where you'd want it.  They need their eye-controlled AF to be linked to a fast dual or multiple-focus system.
