Hi, 

I had been using latex for a while but I switched to lyx 
because of its interesting features.
Being able to see mathematical expressions you write is 
really practical. 
And I had an idea which could I think make it even much faster 
and user-friendly. 
Now, to write a title you have either to click on the right menu 
or  to enter the shortcut (which you have to learn). What I propose
 is that when you enter a backslash, 
with after for exemple title (\title) you can automatically begin to 
write a title. 
Then to save even more time it could be coupled to an autocompletion 
function.

With this you could save time because you dont' have to use your mouse. 
If you already know latex, there is nothing more to learn, so switching 
to lyx is painless. 
And there would be a unified way to access to many functionalities. 
In fact it would use the advantages of the traditional latex writers 
and of lyx in one program.

What do you think of that?
