While we're on this subject, I thought I'd drop a suggestion for future
versions of LyX. It's also related to multipart documents. Currently,
when adding a cross reference to a section that is in another file you
have to use ERT "\vref{sec:whatever}". Along with checking for
bibliographies as mentioned above, it would be nice to check for labels
as well.
I know it's not simple, as that would imply reading (if not opening) all
the lyx files in the document. But I thought adding it to the end of the
wish list would do no harm.
