Well, I think the only tricky bit for generating valid DocBook XML from LyX has been the <bookinfo/> bits and author specification. While I'm very comfortable with DocBook, I confess to being little more than a sometime user of LyX. I may be able to help and provide some suggestions, but if I can produce valid DocBook XML 4.2 with the export tool, that's great with me! I think there would be a bit of work to switch the output routines to produce a DocBook in the 5.x series, but I have only stumbled across the two (minor) issues as a result of a recent resubmission of documents to TLDP. I cannot claim significant experience with DocBook 5.x. I have a bit more with DocBook 4.x and would be happy to advise if there are pending questions. I will trawl the lyx ticket queue.
