Hi Enrico,I'm surprised, and happy, to hear that you use T1 only when possible. Thanks!
Surely just checking for LM doesn't trigger installation under MiKTeX?! Instead of using kpsewhich, couldn't you just mechanically search for the actual files? (After all, you can get the base directory of the texmf tree in a number of different ways.)

Can I enquire about the general philosophy of LyX given the above statement? There's not a problem with it, of course, but I'm left wondering "why?" :)
Personally, since LaTeX is so hard to master with all its packages, I would have thought you'd want to steer LyX users into the more fruitful areas (such as hyperref) that are currently a little tricky to get "just right".
As it stands you still need to be a LaTeX expert to get all of the nice things (or thereabouts).
