If I read correctly, then drop-down list items can be styled in Qt.
I think it would look awesome and, more importantly, enhance
finding items if the layout list would provide some of the WYSIWYM
styles from the work area. I'd suggest font attributes and labeling.
Attached is a mock-up of what this might look like.

There was some grayish background color. A nicer version is attached.

Some more thoughts on the content of the items in the list:
I guess the easiest way would be to always show
label + layout-name
However, in some cases this leads to non-ideal results. For example,
this would result in
Theorem 1. Theorem
That's long and confusing. So, instead there needs to be an
attribute, call it "LayoutListLabel", that allows the formatting if
the layout list item should have a different content. I guess it
would be enough to have a reference to the whole label (such as
Riki's ## for PrettyFormat but more customization, which might also
come to PrettyFormat soon, might be better). So, for the theorem
environments it would be:
LayoutListLabel "##"
Due to popular demand ;), and for the fun of it, I have made some
steps towards implementation. Attached is the visual result of these
first steps. I think looks nice and helps to more quickly find what
one is looking for. I'd be curious what you think?
Next step would be to try to figure out how to get the string with
counter and bullets. This would also make the stars (*) on the layout
names redundant.

A first attempt is the attached patch. However, there are a couple of
(possible) issues:
1. I get an ASSERTION:
support/lassert.cpp (51): ASSERTION false VIOLATED IN
/Users/Shared/LyX/lyx/src/frontends/qt/GuiFontLoader.cpp:132
frontends/qt/GuiFontLoader.cpp (133): Unrealized font!
I guess I am not getting the QFont from the lyx::FontInfo correctly. But
I am not sure what the correct function is. It seems otherwise to work
as expected.
2. I am not sure the way I get the size of an unchanged row from the
dropdownlist in an efficient way.
Maybe someone has a comment on any of the above or other?
