By manual I meant "requiring human intervention", not "requiring to edit text file without visual editor". Suppose you have a FLOAT with n=3. Then you insert a step after this one. Now the part unfloats in the step previous to the original one. And it needs a human to correct that.
I can't think how a good editor would help here (but maybe it could! would you offer an explanation?
