Yes, for keystests. We have the following problem:
Search for a string with advanced find dialog.
We may want to continue, but in some cases it is not possible to enter
a command. (Manually it is possible, but not through xvkbd).
Say, I want to enter regex from the dialog. The command string is
\Axregexp-mode\[Return]
I can see the command in the panel, but the command does not start, e.g.
\[Return] is not accepted.
OTOH, if I use a a bound key for the job, it works.
So starting lyx with some special bindings helps.
I am playing with function keys (not used in any bind file) like
\bind "C-F20" "regexp-mode"
or
\bind "C-F21" "command-sequence dialog-show findreplaceadv ; buffer-end
; buffer-begin-select ; char-delete-forward ;"
to clean the search buffer.
