While revising old email, I'm stumbling on this, and just got a small
idea.  I do not know if it would work.  While playing with the
visibility of the stars, maybe that the text between the beginning of
the line up to the last and only visible star in a header could be given
the "intangible" attribute.  I did not play with this in a very long
while, but if I remember well, this would prevent inserting in the
middle of this region.
