The validation mechanism of InsetListingsParams is great but is not flexible to handle unrecognized parameters introduced, e.g., by a new version of the listings.
The attached patch allows users to input arbitrary parameters by prefixing it with a '@' sign. @ will be removed in latex output, but reserved in lyx files. Please test. Bo
