This is an interesting idea. However that could slow down src block
editing so it would need to be explicitly required by the user (e.g.,
with an optional argument).

Also, it should be necessary to mark somehow the read-only parts or it
could be confusing. Maybe with some glyph in the margin.

You can only know if you try. You will find help on this mailing list
whenever you hit a road block.
