Hello developers!
I have a feature request if this is not already requested to you:
Ribbon Menus.
If someone wanted to code these as an option, I'd have no objection,
except for the fact that
Microsoft appears to have patented this:

in the US. (Patent law here is ridiculous, no doubt.) But I think I'd
have to count myself on the side of peoplewho think that's terrible UI
design, anyway:

So I'd certainly not want to see it as the default.
The actual look of lyx makes duplicate functions in text menus and
icon menus, besides there is a lot of space wasted by allocating the
icon menus.
I almost never use toolbars, so I tend just to hide those.
