Fava has such a feature (and code), see the "insert-entry"-option here: https://fava.pythonanywhere.com/example-with-budgets/help/options/
Basically it works like this: You can add custom "insert-entry" entries with a RegEx, and when adding a transaction, the position where it should go in the file is determined by those custom entries.
