word2x may be a better bet as it has structure extraction logic and has
mutiple backends (so you could put a LyX backend on it). Minimal OLE support
is likely to appear quite soon. The next major release of word2x will feature
configurable, modular, structure grinding stages. If anyone wants to support
all the tunable options in word2x-2.0/ng, the next major relase, will take a
non-small dialog box :-)
When a front end that understands font size and bold, etc then you can be sure
a processing step that turns this into section heading levels and the like.
People can contribute stuff to word2x, especially stages when word2x 2 comes
out, even magic that is only useful in specialist contexts--I can always leave
it out of the default or bypass it if need be,
