No no no no! The UI behaviour is nice at the moment. The problem is that
while I was told the multi-char nucleus would have braces around it,
this isn't happening.
The multi-char nucleus is saved and loaded properly by LyX, right? So
why not export with braces? It shouldn't be that often that people
import LaTeX that was generated by LyX, right?
Then the problem of importing brace insets can be solved a bit later.
Those who don't make use of this feature won't notice anyway.
Have fun,
