Amen to that! Other unpleasantness (in the word processor) relates to 
screen updates when using Compiz - so buggy (even on my well-supported 
Nvidia card) that's it's unusable.

Even though under deadline pressure, i tried LyX for my current writing 
project (thanks to this list), and am really enjoying it. A good blend 
of gui editor and clean separation of structure & appearance. One 
interesting thing is discovering body-memory for a bunch of keystrokes 
for dealing w/bad habits from MS-Word.
