Andre'> I actually see no point in handling paragraphs as "aliens".
Andre'> True, there are some difficulties to represent every kind of
Andre'> nested structure in LaTeX. But I think that should be an issue
Andre'> of the "export to LaTeX" modul, not of LyX's internal
Andre'> representation.
Andre'> I see at least two reasons:
Andre'> 1. LyX is *more* than a LaTeX frontend, so the excuse "LaTeX
Andre'> can't cope with it (natively), so we can't have it in LyX"
Andre'> might put off people who want do use LyX for HTML or maybe
Andre'> even just for displaying things on screen.
Andre'> 2. It is much more user friendly to say "Nest whatever you
Andre'> (the user) want, we (LyX) figure out how to translate it into
Andre'> LaTeX" -- and I think it is more WYSIWYM than telling the user
Andre'> that (s)he cannot mean "nested paragraphs" because there are
Andre'> no such beasts in LyX.
OK, I'll bite: give me *one* example of nesting a paragraph into
another paragraph where you will not need some container around it, to
make precise the type (footnote), the size (parbox) or whatever.
