Hi I'll report my experience. Maybe it will help.
I had some trouble in finding the file. I had to download version 1.3.0 and compile it so I could get the lyx2lyx file. The rest was pretty simple has lyx files have the format number in the beggining I just made a less to the file and it was ok. No problem with the interface. My opinion is that it shoud be distributed separately. It is helpfull if you have old files and you want to work on them. Like an old thesis and you want to use it to write a paper (that was my case). It can also be usefull if you have to downgrade a file. The format could be detected instead of described by the user and only the output should be defined, name and format in lyx version.
