Some time ago I experimented with LyX<->XML roundtrip. In my idea, XML
was not one-to-one mapping of .lyx structure, but an XML format

* which convenient for processing and generation, and
* with enough hints to restore one-to-one correspondence.

Unfortunately, I had to switch to other projects, and left the work
abandoned. Only a part of functionality was implemented:

* http://wiki.lyx.org/Devel/LyXFileFormatReverse
* https://github.com/olpa/tex/tree/master/lyxml

Use "lyxml.py" for testing. In any case, "lyxparser.py" is a good
callback-style Python parser of .lyx files.
