As a passing remark, the whole invisible delimiter business would
become more usable if delimited content became itself a leaf, i.e.
received its own blue box. Then one could also very efficiently
navigate these constructs (I exit child structures with Enter), copy
them, etc.

If I am not mistaken this is already in Joris' plans for parenthesis
in text, I hope that it is also the case for e.g. integrals and their
closing (invisible) delimiters.
