I've often thought about a similar idea.

I'm still relatively new to the industry (3 years programming, 1.5 professionally), but I've found that I'm a BIG fan of refactoring. To me, it's like writing or communicating ideas in general, which I really enjoy. I love taking a complicated idea and trying to explain it in the most simple and readable of terms. It also pushes me to really understand the intent behind the code/text.

To that extent, I enjoy editing and revision much more than creation. So, taking a role as a 'refactorer' actually sounds great!
