Ah. Clever. Yes, that would work.
However, The cases I can think of where {} is useful, it is basically a
'hack'. It would be nicer if LyX had more intuitive support for this.
I would personally like LyX to make its support for nested environments
more explicit, by having some widget (in the toolbar?) which shows you
your complete current context. So, in the example martin gives above,
some widget would show me:
Enumerate
Enumerate
And if I then further nest a paragraph, I'd get
Enumerate
Enumerate
Standard
...complete with keyboard shortcuts for moving around in the hierarchy.
In fact, the existing M-p <- and M-p -> are probably enough, if they
worked more intuitively (and with the visual feedback given by a widget
like that above).
