And for last, your arguments are very much depending on the use of pybliographic.
That was the best free & open source GUI bibliographic manager I had found at the time that could insert references into a Lyx doc with a click and also launch a reference's local .pdf file with a click.
Anyway, take a look at JabRef (http://jabref.sf.net). I was using pyblio and after trying JabRef I was so impressed I changed on the same day. Give it a try, its a great sofware.
I just gave it a try and may keep using it. Functionally, it looks about
the same as Pybliographic as far as I can tell. It is prettier though. Thanks for the tip.
On the downside, it is written in Java :)

Hmmm, it has a lot of nice features like accessing web databases and download records, like medline, etc. Import/export from more formats like ISI, JStor, medline, EndNote, etc. It also uses lyxpipe like pyblio. Searching is easier. A nice feature is to produce a BiBTeX file from a aux file, which I find quite nice if you keep your references in a big file and want to write a paper in colaboration with someone.
The java part is the worst, I agree, being prettier helps but it's not decisive.
