The way I enter an optional argument (when one is allowed) is to open the minibuffer (M-x or View -> Toolbars -> Command buffer) and type the command 'optional-insert'.
Great ! Exactly what I was needing. Probably my fault for not having read throughly the user manual. Anyhow, a Insert->Optional argument, or Insert->Layout option menu voice would help users in finding this wonderful feature, wouldn't it ?
What about considering the attached addition to the menu file ? T.
