If this is a preference thing (and to me this is a preference thing) then I think you should define a new lyxrc variable dialogs_placement_policy or something and use it in the same way we use lyxrc.dialogs_iconify_with_main. No need fro extra spagetti in the structure then and all dialogs behave in the same manner. Angus
