I don't want to come off as someone who is purely defensive of LyX but
I beg to differ with this point. I write all of my articles in LyX and
I don't see how it would be easier in OO. Basic HTML output is one of
the most important things to me when writing articles.
There are things that I wouldn't write in LyX, such as a letter. I try
to do everything in LyX if I can though. I tell myself that I'm
getting a bit of extra LyX "practice", if nothing else.
I find LyX fine for letters too - with a suitable document class.
This way I get printed folding marks so I know it will fit the envelope
when I fold it,
and the address is always positioned so it shows through the envelope
window.
