Mmmmm, but the Alert provides the user with non-intuitive information and
it pops up once only. (I think it should stay in other words.)

What would be nice would be a way of telling Qt to ensure that the Graphics
dialog remained on top of the main LyX window when the Alert pops up, so
that the Alert is on top of the Graphics dialog is on top of the main
window. Currently, the Alert is on top of the main window is on top of the
Graphics dialog :(

Thanks, Georg. I think that I need add similar functionality to the
External dialog, to the Include dialog and to the "Add BibTeX database"
dialog. Do I miss any?
