I wonder...
Many, many users have requested that we provide better support for
commentary. That is, that we provide the ability to "tune" the output
from InsetNote.
Could we not provide the inset dialog with a check box
[] export to LaTeX
and provide the ability to "wrap" this output with a header and a
tail.
Eg
\begin{comment} Contents of inset \end{comment}
\begin{branch1} Contents of inset \end{branch1}
It seems to me that this is a truly generic approach. We will need a
GUI to the concept but that is orthogonal to how the thing is
implemented within LyX.

A Problems document, with and without solution sets, to the students
and to the examiners...
The collapsable inset concept provides an immediate and intuitive
solution.
