Huh, this is a real point!
Not really. The win32 version of lyx does not in any way make it a
more "serious" solution. More accessible of course, but no
more serious.
I'd also like to see more focus (especially) on GTK+.
Now, if we're making wishes - scratch the bloated gtk and
go for fltk. Lightweight they way it should be, and it has
nice stuff like unicode and antialiasing anyway. It probably
won't happen though - lack of manpower as always.
