lyx is a really impressive package. However the average user is never satisfied
and I see some features may be not to difficult to add...

add an option in edit/special character : page jump. it's a simple \newpage,
but more I use lyx less I remember LaTeX syntax :-)

add an option to search and replace formats such as "sections" or
"subsections". Doing so with an other editor is bothersome and error prone.

add an "format editor". I mean, when I change the format of a given paragraph,
according to LyX/LaTeX philosophy, I want all the given paragraphs with same
format to change. This is not the case in lyx 1.04pre8.

a little thing. Ione need to change a word. go to the word, set there the
cursor and end with a cursor in the middle of two spaces. Usually one need to
key in a replacement word, so the lyx feature of cleaning the second space is
uneven. Should work as for lines, that is give the time to try typing before
removing (ie wait a cursor movement before removing extra space).

I just note a surprising feature : if I type in a table, the table extend out
of the paper. Shouldn't the lines wrap when the table reaches the margin?
worst, lyx doesn't scroll horizontally, the table become inaccessible. This is
a big problem ! (large tables seems to address long ones not long line ones.
I'm right?

thanks a lot
