This makes me have to tiptoe through a long document with lots of figures.
Then there is the well-known search-and-replace problems. (xkill had never 
been so useful)

Then there are other annoying things --- off the top of my head (it's been a 
while since I've used lyx 1.2.0):
 - cursor gets stuck in floats/ERT boxes (I'm sure this was reported but I 
can't find it on bugzilla)
 - as figures are being rendered, the text I'm typing jumps out of view and 
the display gets all messed up.

I've never used python, but maybe I'll give it a go in a few months, after 
I've submitted my thesis.
