I don't think so. You could use "sed" program to change the LyX file
directly, althought you must be careful (and knowledgeable) then. Like:
sed 's,oldstring,newstring,g' <oldfile.lyx >newfile.lyx

Sure. And I think the find dialog should not actually accept LaTeX command
(at least not necessarily) but instead the user could search and replace
for styles too, not just character strings (I think some other word
processors can actually do that).
