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..
