*Side question*, because this is quite important, I think: why are you still
using LyX directly?

For my literate programming needs, I've been able to completely forget about
my past ways to do:

- Nuweb (in MS Windows) extensions to LaTeX
- Noweb (in Linux) extensions to LaTeX

and switch, with much more benefits, to Org-only files. What is stopping you
from being able to do so?  That root cause should be fixed, IMHO -- if doable,
of course...

If I understand correctly, this is, indeed, the difficulty Eric exposed us,
when I was working on the isodoc letter (trying to convert Org blocks to
LaTeX, and get everything assembled upon exporting).

Best regards,
