As amsart.cls works with LyX, this should not be a problem.

So you will need the InTitle flag for the Abstract style. This is already
true for the amsart layout.

I would rather start with a new file and include amsart.layout:
#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this
# \DeclareLaTeXClass{article (stacs)}
input amsart.layout
Now you can add, overwrite, and disable layouts to adapt to the stacs class.
I do not know whether this works with 1.6, though.
Is there an analogy to NoStyle to undo UseModule calls (NoModule, say)?

In 1.5, add to your stacs.layout file
Style Theorem
Preamble
EndPreamble
End
to overwrite the Preamble definition in amsmaths.inc with an empty
preamble.

In analogy, I'd just copy theorems-ams.module to theorems-stacs.module
and overwrite the offending parts from included files there.
