Hello Jean-Pierre,

I still don't think that my suggestion is a personal peculiarity. It 
seems to be a (near?) universal standard (not even restricted to word 
processors like Word, Writer and Pages). And I still believe it's for a 
very good reason.

The keenness on LyX behaving more like Word and other word processors 
stems from the idea that a lot of know how went into these applications 
that share a lot of similarities with LyX hence I think that things can 
be learned from them. But that really is restricted to were it seems to 
makes sense. I don't use Word since I prefer LaTeX and many features 
that LyX provides.

I typically post on the tracker (under the user name "racoon").

Best wishes,
Daniel
