o    When we want to write tensors in Einstein's notation, we could
write it in latex in this way, R_i{}^j{}_{kl} so that subscripts and
superscripts won't be rearranged together.  This time, I found out how
to insert the {} (by the red TeX button) :-) but LyX couldn't process it
correctly.  Maybe the same problem as \dj{} mentioned in "Known Bugs"?

     By the way, there is macro to do the same thing.  For the same
tensor, it's written in this way:  \tensor{R}{_i^j_{kl}}

     Maybe LyX can be programmed to handle this too?

o   Superscripts and subscripts are usual put on the right of variable.
But in atomic notations, eg, they are put to the left.  There's no
problem to insert them (just type them).  The following lyx example
illustrates this:

\begin_inset Formula \( ^{235}_{92}U+^{1}_{0}n\rightarrow
^{236}_{92}U\rightarrow \ldots  \)
\end_inset

     However, I wonder if LaTeX (or LyX) allows us to right-adjust those
numbers.  For the moment, they're left-adjusted by defaults.  Therefore,
I should add in predefined spaces provided by the math-panel.  But as
you could imagine, the result is only _approximatively_ right adjusted.
