 notation for .esp files.  But not only.

But you just put each figure into a figure float, and then you can click it
to make it get tiny. Admittedly, it would be nicer if instead of "fig" in
read, you got the filename, but that would have its own problems (e.g.,
really long paths make for much ERT, but removing the path means you may
have files with the same name)

In the coming graphics inset if you will choose not to render the images
it wont scale them and will leave them as a small rectangle.

Actually, it does that even if it is rendered. Is it worth it to scale the
image in the LyX editing window, or can I avoid this hassle?
