I occasionally have the long formula problem, too. I think it should

some improvements that I hope will appear in 2.2.0.

Dear Richard,
Thanks for your answer.
Is the new solution in 2.2.0 that you're referring to part of the 2013 GSOC:
http://wiki.lyx.org/GSoC/HorizontalScrollbar
?
Yes.
About the changes to the codebase to make \slashed{}, \Braket{} etc
render in math-edit mode, do you reckon those changes would have to be made on
a per-package basis, or could it be a once-and-for-all addition?
I believe each command like this has to be handled separately, though if
we're talking about individual symbols, then it's easier, if some font
provides the relevant symbol. I think one then just has to add
appropriate code to the lib/symbols file. But I'm not well informed
about this.
