One is that LyX's XHTML and CSS output can be customized through layout
files, the way you'd customize anything else. Indeed, if you define a
new paragraph style, LyX will, by default, produce CSS that matches the
on-screen representation of the content. I think that also works for
charstyles, but I can't remember off hand. If not, I need to fix that.

There are other differences, too. E.g., LyX properly handles other
layout stuff, e.g., custom counters and cross-references to them. And,
though it wouldn't matter to you, I don't think, LyX's XHTML output is
as internationalized as its on-screen display. Of course, that's all
because LyX's output routines know everything LyX does.

Yes. It was new in 2.0.0.

Impossible, since what formats are available depends upon what
converters you have installed. Maybe there should, though, be a command
line option that would give you a list of these. Easy to implement.
