There are so many things I want to add to LyX, and so little time :(
To name few features that I want to add:
1. Editing of label insets.
2. Better citation popup (I know that it is possible to use external
bibliography program, but I do want LyX to have something better than just a
list of keys).
3. A menu with the table of contents.
4. Using the postscripts latex/ams symbol fonts (that come with TeTeX) in the
math editor.
5. Support for changebar.sty
Any suggestions/objections to the ideas above ?
