Dear Lyx-Developers,

I am *really* impressed ... or maybe even stunned.
The update from 1.4 to 1.5 is really a major
step for LyXkind. On a Mac, it feels every bit as
professional as a Mac App can be (wow).
The SWP guys at MacKitchan must be really scared
as hell. Congrats guys! You are doing a hell of a job,
I hardly can believe the progress.

As usual though, I would like to remind you on the few
issues which I would wish for in order to leave my beloved
SWP behind ... and with it the last reason to emulate a
Windows PC:
- more and better math toolbars!!!! Or is there an easy
way to create them ourselves?
- the few ugly parts of the equations (indices at right height,
vector arrows, \sqrt, paranthesis, \dot, \ddot etc) could be prettier.
- search and replace for equations so that replacing
$a$ in $a + 3a$ becomes easier.
- a compute and plot toolbar.

Features which would be nice are red underlining of bad spellings
and slightly improved latex imports which automatically
create environments for \begin{Example} etc :)

Keep up that great work! The days of SWP are numbered!
-Jan
