That is against the idea; the tex document never exists really. I admit that formatting a document via environments that only exist on the fly and that you never get to see, is cumbersome, and for many users a no-go. Perhaps it may be made possible to write the generated commands to a tex file instead of executing them, although that will not be easy to achieve. It would help users to debug their customization. It would also help them to maintain the bad habit of always going the route of the explicit tex document and editing that. Such a bad habit would turn a process that is fast and efficient, into a process that is cumbersome and awkward.
