I can imagine that it is relevant whether a latex command includes
some additional spaces or not. But Jean Marc has requested this. Maybe he
can motivate it a bit more?

Well, I would like to work with a tool that has a nice GUI! From a
developer's point of view this is neglectable, of course, but from a
user's point of view LyX definitely needs some polishing (don't kill me
but sometimes it looks a little bit "self-made").

I send you just the bigger memory leaks (>1Kb). Whether
_all_ vectors leak is a question that I cannot answer.

Normally, I look for memory leaks _before_ I exit LyX (_real_ mem leaks).
I would expect this also for the problem above but I cannot guarantee it.

Yes, the problem can be generalized. Large insets are problematic.

Very well. It is so good that we have spoken about this problem :-) Gone
to trash folder...!
