A Adobe Writer Pro can produce documents that can be annoted using the free
Reader, right? 

As free software (pdflatex, ps2pdf, ...) is able to create PDF documents
(like the $200 Adobe Writer), shouldn't it be possible to upgrade them to
include annotations with acroread? Or to have a simple command line tool
that modifies PDFs to toggle this annotation feature?

As LyX delegates the PDF production to other programs, this would not be
a business of LyX but of the converters. (LyX only had to call them
with the right arguments.)
