Well, if I place the cursor right at the "minipage" label, LyX should
think that I want to edit the minipage and not the table. The rule should
be: "Deepest nested inset matches first".

Anyway: How do I open the minipage dialog from the menu? I can't find an
entry for that. If I understand you correctly, there should be some
"Inset" entry in the "Layout" dialog that opens the dialog of the current
(whatever that means) inset.

Which, again, raises the question why "Math" and "Tabular" are put in the
"Edit" menu and not in the "Layout" dialog???  I think we should discuss
the current menu structure again...

Aha. That means "close" = "cancel"??? This is really counter-intuitive.
Would it be difficult to make it an "ok" button until a better solution is
implemented?
