[math-mode? ... well I guess you use emacs.bind and mean mark-toggle

What is/does the mark BTW? 
As buffer-begin and buffer-end work as expected in an inset, I
thought a 

  command-sequence buffer-begin; mark-on; buffer-end;
  
would result in a "inset aware" variant of select all, but it did not work.

Jed (and I think also Emacs) has the functions "show_key" and
"where_is" that are very helpful to find out such things:

   show_key:  press a key and see the function bound to
   where_is:  type a function name and see the keybinding
   
My (coming up) python LyX package emulates these functions.
