If I were in Code View, adding tags along the way, that would really put a wrench in my creative process.
Very simply, because most of us just don't use Sigil as a word-processor. I wouldn't, and I live with the thing daily.

When it comes to the whole data loss problem, the Book View seems to be is a LOT safer. I've never lost anything! As a word processor, Sigil's Book View is pretty robust. And--that Table of Contents window is great as an outline processor.
If you have/use Word, I have to say that its outlining mechanisms are fabulous. I use Outline View, but I also love the Document Nav view, which rocks. It's one of Word's little secrets (View-->Navigation Pane). Use headers for structure, not styling, and the Nav Pane is an outline. Significantly less data loss, as well.
