Seems reasonable but I would emphasize that the above is with regard to breaking other export routes *for that document*. Often if a document's export for a non-default route is broken it is because a bug was introduced in LyX and not because a document-specific change was made that is not supported by the route. This is why I think there is a high signal/noise ratio in the export tests for the non-default formats. The most annoying part is setting them correctly to begin with. But yes, if it is only with regard to the document, those "bugs" can sit around. Scott
