But honestly, it isn't that difficult! I would have thought you could
look at the logicalmkup module and figure out pretty quickly how to
do a new one.
I know how to do this, but this was not my point. I argued as if I
were a basic user to show the problematic and not be impolite or
ignorant - just objective.
Sorry, by "you" I meant "one". (This is common in colloquial English.
Maybe not so much in other languages.) I think anyone with any knowledge
of LaTeX at all ought to be able to make a simple character style along
the lines of noun, etc. But people are, for whatever reason, reluctant
to do so. I'm not saying some sort of GUI wouldn't be helpful. But it's
not as if character styles are so incredibly complicated you have to be
a programmer to create them.
According to my arguments, I will postpone using character styles in
the docs I maintain to LyX 1.7 or 1.6.x.
That's fine.
