Haven't looked at the patch, but this is something that we do elsewhere. The clean and elegant solution, IMO, would be to have a LyXComboBox that derives from (or stores internally --- probably better) QComboBox which would store the "identifier" string. QComboBox would show the "translated" string, but LyXComboBox->text() would return the "identifier" string. Ie, nothing more than you're suggesting, but wrapped up inside a OO interface. -- Angus
