I love change tracking in LyX and I struggled to find something
similar in TEX, so I really take care of what you say.
What about a "compatibility mode" where nice feature like embedding,
versioning, branching and all the .lyx-specific features are not
available? This way the user can choose if use a lyx file and benefit
of all the beaty of LyX or be compatible and use TEX files.
Unfortunately this is not as easy as you think. So, sorry but no, this
won't happen ;-)
Your compatibility problem with TeX is an import problem, not a file
format one. The solution is to improve TeX2LyX. Unfortunately, we lost
our main developer in this area :-(
