Only an interim measure to stop the complaints about it not being updated

Signals, signals everywhere. We should be able to add a signal now with a
suitable conditional test to activate it but Lars' idea of getting
everything into insets and making insets activate a signal upon change is
a better approach in the longer term. It also makes it easier to figure
out where to put the signal activations in the first place.

Maybe you use CUA bindings while I use xemacs bindings 'cos it works for
me. (cursor in front of the inset) I couldn't find an entry in the menu
bar in my quick search.
