It's hard Julio. It's hard enough that I couldn't even *specify* a layout editor, though I tried. If I'd been able to specify one, I'd have either pestered the LyX crew to write it, or written it myself in Perl/Tk (I'm not much of a Qt type of guy). I'm thinking the best way to address the difficulty of new environments and character styles might be to start a public collection of them. A person could start with something close to what he wants and tweak it til it's right. Such a collection could come with a supporting document that organizes various environments and character styles in a hierarchy so that what you need is easily findable. Wordperfect and MSWord have layout editors of sorts, but their tags are sooooo much simpler than LaTeX.
