I don't like the "small button" idea for inlined ERT. It affects
readability. I would like to be able to write things like
"Atmospheric transmission is terrible at 20 \microns because of water
vapor"
with the minimal amount of decoration around the inlined "\microns".
"\microns" is a very definite markup concept (used by several journal
packages) and is distinct from "$\mu$m", even though that is what TeX
eventually operates on. I would like to be able to read it with only the
distraction of the "\" and maybe the color red.
I don't understand the great desire for a toggleable ERT inset anyway.
Force the user from the beginning to decide whether it will be inlined or
not. The author should know right away which is appropriate. Then have two
GUI operations which feed the ERT inset: one which is inlined with as
little decoration as possible - like inline math mode, and one which is an
ERT box (which is also collapsable).
