Interesting. I may give it a try, but I was hoping that XML->LyX might be a matter of applying an XSLT that outputs text. Also, the schema matters, and since LyX has LyXHTML (XHTML), and since I'm using that, I was hoping I could find an importer from XHTML in particular. I'd still have to write an XSL for translating from the schema I use, so it's not like I was looking for a turn-key solution :) but still, I'm glad someone's done something in this space!
