Cooper et al.,
Yes, I've seen Tom & Mark Chudnow do this with EH bocals & oboe staples (chamfer). He/Mark also "straighten" EH bocals slightly with the bocal fully inserted into the ferule of the top tube, maintaining that the air flow tends then to have less of an ell to circumvent, thereby enhancing the sound. The bocal still has a slight crook in it.
Comments, Chris P.?
Best,
