majority of cases.
-- cut&paste inside math-mode doesn't work the X fashion (middle button doesn't
- paste anything).

Jules Bean:
as acceptable before, but consistency would be nice ;-) IMO, self-inverse
would be best for both.
-5) Proposal : a 'ligatures' or 'autocorrect' system
-
-One of the very minor, but useful, features of TeX is the way it lets you
-type the nearest approximation to what you want using a 'typewriter
-keyboard', and substitutes the typographically neat equivalent. In
-particular, 'fancy' quotes (") and en and em dashes (---). I propose that
-this UI element could be taken up a level into LyX, with a system that does
-the following (for example):
-
--> becomes \rightarrow
-<- becomes \leftarrow
-=> becomes \Rightarrow (etc..)
-==> becomes \Longrightarrow (etc..)
-
-This may only be appropriate in math mode, of course. This family bug me
-in particular because they take ages to type using a \-escape. Undoubtedly
-sharp minds will think of others, and also we need some way of actually
-typing those sequences as literals when we want them.

6) Scope macros:
The current macro system is clever, but could be neater. One improvement
I'd like is to let LyX know about TeX's scoping rules...

-- use AMS's \text instead of \mbox. It supports accented characters,
