What are some of the alternative ways to define a converter, and what
are the sort of details that would be useful to know in deciding?
Converters are defined under Tools>Preferences>File Handing>Converters.
See section 3.3 of the Customization manual for the details of the
syntax. Basically, any stupid script can act as a converter. It just
needs to take certain arguments, and you need to tell LyX what they are.
Lots of converters are already defined there, so you can also mimic
them.
However, the converter is executed in a temporary folder, which is
precisely what the user wanted to avoid (and the reason to write the
script in the first place). I miss how you can get around this.
Sorry, I must have missed that part.

I believe copiers could help here, but I do not understand them/never
used them.
