It also would be really nice, if

1) there is an opportunity to specify the *default* display for *new*
inset, preferably even customizable per inset-type.

2) the document-specific state of each inset would no longer be stored
in the document file (fancydoc.lyx),  but in some extra settings file
(such as fancydoc.lyxrc).
(It is kind of annoying to get version control conflicts just because
of the fact the me and my colleagues prefer different ways to display
the insets on screen.)

When people are beginning to ask for a brand new user interface for
such a minuscule feature, something is wrong.

Well this one is not just about a brand new feature but about a very valid design problem and a very valid user request. The collapsable status should not be stored in the the LyX file but saved in the session or something like that. Unfortunately modifying this would (I think) imply a file format change so I don't think this could be solved in 1.5.x. Maybe in 1.6 if I find the time to work on this.

You mean on mouse hovering? That would be nice but I am not sure this is feasible in the 1.5.x time frame. Displaying part of the float caption like what is done for ERT is a simpler solution.
