I do a lot of LaTeX. With LaTeX there is some attempt to be declarative, to separate layout from context. But I find that while 99% of the time the separation works, there just are times you need to tweak or fiddle.

I currently use a graphics-drawing system that is not very declarative at all (Asymptote). Going to more declarative approach is a very attractive idea, but I couldn't see quite how much tweakability there is in this system. I'd be surprised if you could get away with none at all.

They have an IDE that allows you to fiddle with all the stages in the pipeline, including the imperative stuff.
