Hmmm, I get a completely unrelated article at that URL, but from your
description it sounds like a feature that KLyX 1 already had: The "Document
Structure Editor" (actually, the only real "added value" in KLyX 1). (See
e.g. http://www.linux-magazin.de/ausgabe/1998/05/News/klyxshot1.gif)
If there is interest in this, I can try to retrofit that code into the
current LyX, but this would require changes to the LyX kernel, so I would
need some help there. Also, the GUI will be difficult to implement for any
frontend that does not have a tree-view widget.
