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.
