Hello, LyX 2.0 is getting awesome, but I think there's just a last must-have 
feature missing: support for scripting. I think implementing Python scripting 
[1] wouldn't be that difficult, as all the functionalities (event notification, 
commands, response and errors) are already implemented in the LyX server [2].
Maybe I can take care of this, if you're interested, even if I know new users 
shouldn't try to implemnt new features, but I've been walking around LyX code 
for a while and recently (today) I wrote a patch 
(http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/7042#comment:7).
I hope in your support because this is probably one of those features which 
could attract a lot of interest in LyX. Imagine that one can be able to write a 
quick plugin in Python to use a specific LaTeX package? Wouldn't that be 
interesting?

Ale
