Not everybody wants to to have boxen with these features... Another approach would be to create an InsetBox inset which implements (at least) latex's \mbox (and \makebox) \fbox (and \framebox), \parbox and possibly minipage. >From a LyX user point of view, one would have a single Insert>Box command, and options to - set/unset border - set a width (which could be columnwidth) - maybe select between minipage and parbox, although I am not sure what the real advantages of parbox are here.

I do not like much the fact that you have chosen arbitrarily how a box should look like. I think that you should let the user choose freely what kind of boxing he wants. A byproduct of that would be to allow better importing of latex docs through tex2lyx. JMarc
