If I understand the corkboard approach, you start by writing random notes,
an outline of your ideas, etc... Then you can shuffle it and link it and
then you start to write your document.

Wouldn't it make more sense to have a structure with a file note.xml a file
outline.xml the lyx file and a RDF database like they have for Nepomuk to
tag or link between elements.

Cheers,
