We discuss the usefulness of the CP violating semileptonic asymmetry a{sub SL} not only as a signal of new physics, but also as a tool in constraining the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa parameters. We show that this technique could yield useful results in the first years of running at the {ital B} factories. We present the analysis graphically in terms of M{sub 12}, the dispersive part of the B{sup 0}-{bar B}{sup 0} mixing amplitude. This is complementary to the usual unitarity triangle representation and often allows a cleaner interpretation of the data. {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society}
