Fair enough, but I wouldn't like to see this pass without putting in my
strongest possible support for the existing policy of forbidding extra
white spaces.

Allowing extra white space, knowing that it will be wiped out by LaTeX,
is at best useless, at worst misleading.

Furthermore, this behaviour of Lyx is one of the things that I point
out to beginners to distinguish Lyx from their old word processor. It
is a simple, yet powerful, way to show them the advantages of leaving
formatting to the latex engine.

Cheers,
Alan
