I agree completely with Trevor. If you are serious about "what you
see is what you mean" and "LyX lets you concentrate on writing" (from
http://www.lyx.org/WhatIsLyX ), the message should not be displayed.
So you volunteer to handle the bug reports saying "LyX doesn't
accept what I type" ... ... ... "Ah, two spaces... won't work."?

Oh like the "bug repots" of "LyX doesn't put my images where I want", etc.
Come on guys, this is ridiculous. If some thing one should do before using
anything is to read the manual, and there it is well written: "LyX is
WYSIWYM", so meaningless thing won't work, like two consecutive spaces
unless you really want them and then you can just do CTRL+space, voila! two
spaces. So I join the one who thinks meaningless messages must be ridded out
of LyX.
+1 with Trevor
