Georg helped me to fix the remaining issus. But in general he don't want such language supports. I
understand that he prefers a solution where the user can just type in latin AND non-latin characters
into a document without switching via ERT or a layout file. But also on my note that we have the
same situation for e.g Arabic support, his reply was: "For me are existing weak spots no reason to
implement more."
That means we could drop most of our language support because the existing LaTeX-packages to write
other languages are limited. But this is a fact and I'm not going to rewrite e.g. the armTeX-package
for easier language support. And furthermore there is no reason to prefere a language support over
another. I mean we have support for Arabic so there's no reason not to have it for Armenian.
I tested my patch today again hardly and fixed the remaining issues Georg told me. So I'm going to
commit this now.

Besides this, the patch for bug 3043 is very important for LyX 1.5.0 because it properly supports
the CJK languages in the menus. I'm going to try that I can apply the babel call part of this patch
but for the rest other testers are needed.
Georg told me that the patch is ready, but not fully tested, that's the reason
why he didn't applied it.
Unfortunately he retired in developing LyX some time ago and we have to finish
it.
