The status switch is not done by LyX. It "happens" by using cvs commands or saving changes of the document. It's only queried to make a qualified decision what to ask the user or what operation to deny. E. g. You have a modified checkout cvs states "Locally modified". If another user commits his change cvs states "Needs Merge". If your checkout is clean instead it says "Needs Checkout". > you can always guess something from code, but in case you make bug it would > be hard job for anyone else to guess what was the intention.
