Yes... I am working on this.

Yes, but we need to be able to put in specific lengths as well "2cm".
| 3. Minipages shouldn't be collapsable or at least we should change the
| painting of an open minipage so that there is no "minipage" label on
| the right side which takes away needed horizontal screen space.
| Maybe we should put the label on the top-right (or left) corner
| depending on the surrounding rigth2left/left2right setting.
I disagree. they should be collapsable, but should not be collapsed by
default.
Something can be done about the label though.
| 4. We need a dialog for all the minipage options (is there a volonteer on
| the xforms-base to make the base for this, otherwise I will have to make
| it, but IMO Angus would be a lot faster) I can design the dialog and
| commit the .fd file if that is requested.
Yes this is needed.
| 5. We have to define a mode to open this types of dialogs (we already use
| right-mouse-click for tabulars, but is this wanted?)
As you can see with all collapsable insets they have a problem... when
opeing a collapsed inset and the inset contain a label, graphics
whatever the label's edit is executed.
| 6. The default when creating or converting a new collapsable inset should
| be that the inset is open!
yes, perhaps.
| 7. We have draw problems with this type of insets (% of page width where
| for now % is always 100%, but that really doesn't matter).
mmm
| 8. IMO also collapsed minipages should always span the same horizontal
| space so that the document structure is held.
| That's all what I can remember right now. Let me know. I'll have a look at
| this because a lot of this is connected to the InsetText (drawing) so maybe
| I'm the one who is fasted to fix problems.
the drawing problems certainly.
