My 1.4 IU plan actually is something like: - let both hierarchies base on some InsetBase (i.e. Inset and MathInset derive from that) (trivial) - move common stuff from Inset and MathInset to InsetBase (simple) - Create "deep iterators" equivalent to MathIterator (doable) - Use these iterators everywhere (doable) - Kill MathIterator (simple) - Kill LyXCursor (simple) ... - ... and get everything into a working state again (hard) - Kill inset locking (simple afterwards). I don't think I'll touch too much of LyXText, so this mess will probably be around for another cycle. But we'll see how things develop..
