Modifications automatically done to the Groovy source when the Manual view is modified could change the test to unusable

When the manual view of a Test Case is modified, Katalon Studio alters the Groovy source. In some cases this makes the test unusable.
See steps to reproduce in the test case below.

import static com.kms.katalon.core.testcase.TestCaseFactory.findTestCase

/* 
 * Steps to reproduce:
 * 1. Run this test case in order to make sure it works and what it does.
 *    Note it prints in console this lines:
 *    
     This is a 
     multiline text
     that interpolates a value: 0

 * 2. Note the original source is:

<JavaDoc>
def myMeth() {
	return 0
}

def info = """
     This is a 
     multiline text
     that interpolates a value: ${myMeth()}
"""

println(info)

 * 3. Go to the Manual View of this test case
 * 4. Insert any keyword (for example Delay)
 * 
 * Result: the groovy source has been altered so that bugs have been introduced (it cannot be executed)
