I think it was added just to make this option more readily available.

bibtex8 allows 8-bit characters; biber (which is written in Perl) allows
full Unicode. bibtex itself will sometimes tolerate both but officially
supports only ASCII.

Math is output as MathML by default, but you can instead select pure
HTML (like elyxer), images (like htlatex), or pure LaTeX (intended for
use with things like MathJax). So that bit of the user guide does need
updating. I think I wrote it quite early on.

The Strict XHTML 1.1. button tells LyX to generate only compliant code.
In practice, this means no "<a name='whatever'>" tags, which are not
supported in XHTML 1.1.

Finally, the image scaling setting does the obvious thing: It scales any
images we output.
