Because I have to stare at it for much more than any other text I read
on the computer.

It is a matter of readability on some screens.

And why? LyX isn't WYSIWYG, so as long as the work area is readable,
why worry about its typography?

What is your platform ? If it is Wayland on Linux it is not possible yet 
because the painting occurs on an intermediary pixmap and this kill 
subpixel aliasing.


I have a patch that can allow to avoid that, at the price of painting 
the whole screen at each update. I am not sure at this point whether the 
performance cost is acceptable.
