What would be nice to have is importing of LaTeX generated by
Maxima. Unfortunately it just doesn't work. No error messages, but the
math will have very little WYSIWYM on the screen and LaTeX won't process
the result. Here's small example:
\documentclass[english]{article}
\begin{document}
$${{1}\over{\sqrt{3}}}\leqno{\tt (D1)}$$
\end{document}
(Maxima generates only the math line, header and tail was inserted by me).

This is plain TeX, you get a right dvi output in LyX if you change
the $$ in $ and wipe out the \leqno{\tt (D1)} (which doesn't make
sense anyway if you want to reference equations at your will).
This is easy to automate.
You would get no ERT at all in LyX if reLyX was able to convert
{1}\over{\sqrt{3}} as \frac{1}{sqrt{3}}: this is more difficult...
Is it a weakness of reLyX (i.e. no implementation of math TeX constructs
in mathed ?).

That's not a job for reLyX, but for the mathed parser...

Well, I care, since that's what I am using.
The Maple specific code is currently 57 lines and can be
removed/changed/whatever anytime without recompilation.

\over is evil since it is not properly read by the parser. Well, the parser
needs a rewrite anyway, but apart from that this Maxima input does not
sound too hard to do.
