http://www.voti.nl/wisp has had this feature since its first version
(1988?). And beside running the application program you can also
(optionally) communicate with it, using the same two lines as used for
programming.

But WISP is obsolete now, http://www.voti.nl/wisp628 is an updated
design with the same features.

BTW there is now also PC software that works on windows. Support for
more flash PICs (18f's, 12f's, 16f87xA's) will be available rsn.
