You have been here a too short time...

I have said this before, and  I am sure you have seen it, but you have
probaly not understood the implications:

        We are using xforms wrong.

We are not calling xforms functions as a result some events all the
time, this confuses xforms internal completely. Some time ago we did
all the drawing with xforms native functions (no direct X11
functions), this resulted in spurious lines, colors etc. all over the
lyx window.
