Interesting question really. It would seem logical that moving on
to the next version would actually help solve some of the bugs/misfeatures,
since code gets rewritten, simplified, formalized, reviewed, whatever.
I would emphasize though, to quote you. "mathed is such a fine editor"
It is precisely that. It is so fine that I use it 4 or 5 hours a day
and do things with mathematics that I couldn't possibly dream of otherwise,
so it would seem to warrant significant attention to clean up the numerous
small bugs/misfeatures. On the other hand I've been using Lyx since
the beginning and I notice that these things do get fixed, so I guess
the moral of the story is:
Mathed is great, and as Michelangelo, while painting the Sistine Chapel,
used to say to the priest in response to his query,
"I will be finished when I'm finished.
