I vote for A. We've lived with xforms for years -- another few months won't 
hurt. And, as you all are probably tired of hearing me say, BY FAR the worst 
LyX deficiency is the lack of character styles, and that should be top 
priority in 1.4. There's only so long the color pseudo-styles will work, 
because there are very few colors that are practical, and keeping track of 
them is difficult.

Compared to the lack of character styles, xforms' problems are cosmetic.
