If you didn't notice we already do this with Layout-Tabular (should you have
a tabular inside a tabular)! The only different stuff is that we probably
need a general UpdatableInset function. Something like OpenDialog() now you
just have to go down the tree and the last dialog is opened (that of the
inset we are just inside with the cursor!), this is quite easy to realize
(surely easier then right mouse button click ;)

Well no I would make a difference, but that's future so don't let us
discuss right now (f.ex. a menu cannot have input-boxes!)
One thing I would like to see is that we don't close the Dialogs if the
inset get's out of scope! The only thing we have to do inside the Dialog
is if the inset-pointer == 0 then just disable all of the dialog buttons
and fields (make it inactive). This is much nicer then just closing the
dialog. F.ex. I have a locking inset in 2 buffers, I want to change
something in both buffers and jump from one buffer to the other to
verify I have the same options, now this is much more easier if the
dialog reamains open, don't you think?
