I think yourself from 11 years ago would agree with you ;)

I also strongly agree with you! I think it is possible to fix this, and my 
feeling is it isn't that hard (although I'm often wrong on this). I outlined a 
plan here: https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/6403#comment:9
but did not get any feedback on it.

@LyX developers: It would be nice to at least agree on what a patch would look 
like. Again, I am not volunteering to write it. But for example, is there 
agreement this would involve a new copier variable (as discussed in my plan 
linked above)?

I've wanted to work on this, and I don't think it would be too hard. But I will 
not find the time anytime soon. If anyone volunteers to work on it, I will be 
happy to provide feedback and testing.

By the way, thanks for sticking with LyX Neal even though it doesn't have the 
thing you'd most like to see!

Scott
