Dependent origination analysis of temptations?

Has anyone thought to keep certain of the nidanas in mind so that you can assess where you're at in the process? I'm thinking of the sense object, sense medium, contact between them, feeling, craving, clinging. We unintentionally see things so the first three is not entirely preventable, but once it registers as feeling we can certainly know if it progresses it leads to craving or even worse, clinging.
