Removing the p-solvability hypothesis from the induction lemma
Determine whether the conclusion of Lemma~\ref{lem:p-solvable}, namely equality of the p-rationality levels of a p'-degree character of a p-solvable subgroup and its induced character when the subgroup has p'-index and the character has p-rationality level at least 2, remains valid without assuming that the subgroup is p-solvable.

At this time we are not able to determine whether the conclusion of Lemma~\ref{lem:p-solvable} remains valid without the assumption that $M$ is $p$-solvable. If this were the case, then the proof of Theorem~\ref{thm:p-solvable} would show that Conjecture~\ref{conj:Lusztig-induction} holds when the parabolic subgroup $$ is $F$-stable.
