I think I do. > I don't know if this is easy to implement but surely is the sane way to go. No, I think we'll run into trouble if we do this literally, as the whole layout file syntax is so very different now. However, one basic idea in this that we could consider is: describing the insets a given paragraph style may contain, rather than (my above proposal) describing the paragraph styles that may contain a given inset.

BTW Jean-Marc, I now remember that one problem with \" instead of " was, that you first have to read in the string delimited by "", and only then substitute whatever it is you want to substitute. If the string contains substrings \", the first step wil fail because of the ". Of course there would be ways around it, but requiring extra coding. I thought this was good enough.
