Is it possible to turn off all automation in Sigil?
Hi

I just tried Sigil for the first time to create an epub. I'm using v0.5.3. I have previously generated several epubs by hand, and know exactly how I want my epubs formatted.

I have turned off Tidy and the check for well-formed errors. But every time I do a global search and replace, Sigil insists that I must have an ID for all my headings; I do not want them, but when I remove them Sigil generates new ones for me.

I also do not like to have blank lines between paragraphs, but Sigil automatically inserts them, much to my despair.

I would like to use Sigil to generate .opf and .toc files for me, and validate the epub, plus switching between book-view and code-view, i.e. doing what sigil is best at, but I do not want anything to temper with my html-code. Is it possible to turn off all the automatic formatting, so that I can be the judge of how the code shall be written?
