If it is done in a single motion, I don't see an issue with it. I put out 25, it gets raised to 100, I pull in my 25 and toss out a hindred at the same time, no issue.
Fiddling with chips already committed while conisdering action, though, is problematic. Not only could it be seen as angling, since it implies action, other players cannot really track what you are doing. If I pull chips in, then put different chips out, etc, it is very easy for people to lose track of what is out there.
With regards to messing with chips from your previous bet, I am not sure if I fault it from the standpoint of 'it is the pots chips'. I fault it from the standpoint of creating confusion.
