However I wanted to highlight a possible complication if the proposal of expanded labels in parent-child documents is introduced: I would really not like to behave LyX in such an hardly predictable way. IMO implementing the parent-child label disambiguation will need carefull consideration and might be less urgent (or unnecessary) with the DUPLICATE and BROKEN markers reduce labeling problems in 1.6. Sorry for beeing ambiguous. Thanks for improving LyX, Günter
