I don't know a lot about the unidiff syntax... how do you tell it what to replace in a way that's typo-proof?

If we want to avoid the matter of typos, we could also add suport for a replace_subsection command or a replace_paragraph command that would snip out the nth paragraph/subsection regardless of its text. It also wouldn't be too hard, given an interpreter for the prop code, to have a little CGI form that let you look at what the rules would look like if your prop passed, just as a sanity check.
