Michael,

since you're the one doing most of the testing...

are you happy with the new citation dialog behaviour when you press Apply? If 
so, as this behaviour is implemented for all Inset dialogs, do you find any 
for which this "clear on Apply" isn't appropriate?

I know that there are a few issues still to be addressed with the citation 
dialog. The behaviour you describe below is one. Another is the fact that the 
BibTeX database is read repeatedly, not just when it changes. Finally the 
strange behaviour on resize.

Anything else?
