Um... No.  I've used LaTeX in the manuals ... sparringly, mind you.
But there are times when you NEED to do so, 'cuz LyX just don't do all
of LaTeX yet.  Example:  \begin{sloppypar} ... \end{sloppypar}  There
are times when you *have* to use this.  Multicols is another example.

Enough ERT-bashing, already.  LyX ain't gonna duplicate LaTeX in all
of its functionality --- PERIOD!  Ergo, you WILL need LaTeX mode from
time to time.

OTOH, the "->" should NOT turn into ERT in the manuals.
