My earphones kept breaking (I use them while working out) so I reinforced the sensitive area with a heat-shrink wire wrap, like these:

It works wonders. I'm not sure this would work for Mac chargers because you couldn't get the sleeve over the ends, but it also works iPhone charger cables.
Wow, I can't believe Apple still has a fray problem. I remember my OS 9 G3 Powerbook went through 3 or 4 chargers. Don't risk buying from a 3rd party vendor (read my post below). The best you're going to be able to do is to get thick gauge, heat-shrink wrap tubing and use your wife's hair dryer if you don't have a hot air gun. I've used this brand[1] before with success.
