Same here. I've needed to do it once or twice to be reaccommodated due to weather, and yes, it's laborious and time-consuming. EXP phone agents said I would need to go to an airport agent to un-check me in, which she did after a grimace and a LOT of typing (with the assistance of a colleague, who knew the system better). I think it must be a really annoying and complex process, as you say.
