OK, so noweb2lyx is mostly useful for people who don't feel like reading the
documentation and just want to convert their noweb files :)

Oh good. Of course by raw tex you must mean raw tex that's not in scraps,
since scraps get copied verbatim. In that case, maybe you would want to run
noweb2lyx -pre, then hand-edit and put some more reLyXskip blocks in there,
and then run relyx and noweb2lyx -post.

I'm waiting with bated breath.

Ask Asger Alstrup Nielsen for help, since he implemented Import->LaTeX. It
should be extremely easy, since the interface will be almost exactly the
same, and the comand is the same, except with a -n in it. (In fact, I wonder
if it should even have a separate window, or maybe you could combine the
latex & noweb windows somehow? But "Import->Latex_or_Noweb" might be
confusing.)
