Yes, it is. Unfortunately, TeX/LaTeX is a software with one of the worst
possible designs... In particular, it does not conform to a precise grammar
or format, which makes it hardly impossible to import .tex files in a 100%
safe manner. We intend to improve our import filter via our latest job offer,
but I doubt that a 100% correct result will ever be possible.
