No, not ditching it completely. But some external templates are really graphic formats and it's confusing to have them appear elsewhere. Also, chunks of the user interface are similar and could be merged.

Hello,

my last patch was attached to #5962:

  http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/5962
http://www.lyx.org/trac/attachment/ticket/5962/lyx-create-external-material-v2.patch

It was not at all a merge of the two, but merely a single patch addressing the same issue both in the external material and in the graphics insertion dialogs (i.e., a new Edit/Create button -- even though it doesn't behave exactly in the same way -- I wanted to keep working on it but I couldn't find further time for that).

My last thoughts on this were along the line that, assuming it is impossible to do an actual merge of the 2 functionalities because of the too big impact on the current code (not to mention the file format), especially compared to my availability of time, then I would just replicate what I need in both of them (the Edit/Create button, which also allows for automatic creation of the file by copying an empty sample, when needed).

    T.
