In lighter leader material, I'd be scared of undoing a knot and then retieing it. Too much risk for wear and compromised knot. With the no-slip, you wouldn't be able to anyways. With heavier material, I've certainly heard of people doing it before. I can't remember the name of the knot that allows you untie and retie without cutting, but I don't think it was the Rapala knot.
