I love LyX, because I can input math from the keyboard, without click and search in menus and dragging around - just using familiar LaTeX syntax. The same would apply for many smaller edits (font changes, package insertions, ...): if the source view were edible, I could do many of these changes fast and per keyboard without searching in menus or the shortkey-list. (Of course, this is from the view point of someone familiar with LaTeX - but this is a large part of the LyX user base.) Günter
