I heartily agree. However, unifying Notes, Comments and Branches (my first suggestion) would IMO improve the usability of the UI. > You _can_ have a note inside a branch inset BTW. I know, but this would not solve the OP's problem (notes visible to a co-author not using LyX, also see the Subject). However, you can also have a footnote, margin-note or framed box inset in a branch. So it comes back to my first proposal: Instead of a LyX-Note, use a branch for parts of the document that should be optionally visible in the output. This does not require any change to LyX. (It could be made easier by a way to convert Note insets to a "visible" inset, though.) >> Also there is the semantics part.
