I'd say that you need to define what _inefficient_ means in your environment since your workload is different then everyone else's. The considerations will be different for OLTP/DSS/DW and something else for exadata systems.
Many moons ago, I wrote a query that would scan through automatically generated ADDM reports (scanning the views), for last n days, look at all sqls identified as candidates for tuning and list them including how many times they were identified as candidates. Also scanned db parameter changes if those were recommended by ADDM runs as a handy html report. On occasions we found it to be very handy. This was slightly better than looking at a single addm report for us.

However due to employment contract, I had to leave the only copy with my employer, some day I might need to revisit the topic and try to rewrite it.
