No, unfortunately this is not possible by design, so it's probably not going
to be a feature that is easy to add. The changes to faqomatic are only done
through the faqomatic script. I suppose you could just download all of
faqomatic's data to your PC, and then run faqomatic locally to change files,
then figure out a way how to upload only the changed files. This certainly
is not a clean solution.
