I have not followed this thread closely, but are you guys suggesting
*visible* blanks and newlines as what vim and word have?

Kind of.
There are only some cases where it could be useful to have a visual feedback wheather there's a space between a inset and the sourrounding text.
For use cases check back on my post at:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.devel/86469

I think we don't neet this for general text like in Word or OOo: I-have-an-apple. This is useless because Lyx intelligently removes aboundant spaces.

It could be a feedback which can be switched on and of upon need and users liking. Maybe -- you developers know it better than I -- it could easier be implemented through some kind of macro.

If the search&replace dialog of Lyx would support advanced formatting (newline, lyx notes, footnotes, etc.) we could search for such cases.

I would support such a feature request.
Thank you.
