(I assume that you mean "editing a LyX file by hand" is a bad idea
rather than "having a syntax file for LyX files".)
Why? I do this all the time (with care, of course). When I need to
change 75 instances of "my_images.eps" to "my_images.tif", etc. Or
whenever I need to do any search-and-replace that involves ERTs --
let's say, for example, that I want to replace all references to
"Tiros-Translations" with "Tiros-\hspace{-0.1em}Translations" -- or is
this now possible from within LyX in newer versions?
