This seems difficult:
first such a script may give the same name to two different Styles
second this conversion has to be done also in the documents

Of course, accept Style names with non ASCII characters (like in the
previous versions of lyx) would be the simplest way for me. But in that case
if the layout in UTF-8 probably the document has to be in the same
encoding (if its possible?) which means that lyx have to convert it 
automatically.

All my documents where written with my layouts and as I use lyx since
the 1.2 version I have a lot! (94 different files for the layouts
a lot of mathematical papers, mathematical books teaching documents,
letters etc...).

Traduce my layout to be accepted by the actual lyx-1.5 is not really
a problem, but traduce all my actual documents to be read by lyx-1.5 with the
new Style names is for me probably almost impossible!
