No, as Martin said, so much has changed in cache handling in 1.5 that it would be a lot of work to try to correct this in 1.4. This would destabilize 1.4 way too much I'm afraid.
I have a feeling that if we continue to improve 1.5.x like this, we do not need any 1.4.5... It would even make sense that we keep a semi-feature-freeze even after 1.5.0 is released, and pay all our attentions to bugzilla entries. 1.6.0 can wait, maybe till 1.5.2. This can be a bad idea but I just feel that lyx is already feature-rich, but is in need of a lot of optimization and bug-fixing. Bo
