To see an issue that has long annoyed me, do the following:

1. In math mode, type "=".
2. Select the "=" you just typed.
3. Choose "Overset" from the math toolbar (alternatively, just type "\overset").

The "=" is put in the "above" box, because that is the first LaTeX
argument. From the user perspective, I think that putting "=" in the
primary box is usually expected. For example, I think that this would be
more consistent with when the user selects something and chooses
"subscript". The thing selected is in the main box (it is not placed
into the subscript).

This patch tries to fix this.

The issue is now fixed in master. I have another feature request: I
think the cursor should be put in the newly created box (just like with
superscript, for example). Should I make a trac ticket for this
enhancement?

Haven't followed the thread, but does this solve
