1) What if the layout list would be user-configurable, like the
menu bar is at present?
Ship LyX with a default layout list, but let the user define
his/her own when desired.
2) Slightly distantly related to this:
Is there a plan to include right-mouse-click-contex-sensitive
menus? (Does XForms allow this technique?)
For example, marking text and right-mouse-click in the marked
area, would popup a menu that applies to the marked text.
