But now something else was noticed... all my beautiful eps figures have
been rasterized! Augh! They are hideous in output. :(((
Is this normal???

Kenward,
XeTeX requires, like PdfTeX, figures in these formats: pdf,jpeg,png. Since you
are using LyX, this conversion from eps to pdf is done for you. I suppose the
conversion is not done well enough. I would suggest you convert them yourself to
keep the vector essence.

Ah. OK. Knowing that, does anyone have a suggestion for the
transformation? I thought pdf could be a "wrapper" about an eps
figure... If so, which utility is a good one?
LyX itself relies upon ImageMagick's convert utility, which is as simple as:
convert file.eps file.png
I'm not sure how you might automate this in LyX. There must be some way
to force conversion to png instead of pdf.
