Question 1: do you use the lyx2lyx framework? The advantage would be that
lyx2lyx knows about the lyx format of all revisions.
Nope, and it is a very good idea. However I would like to build a
standalone tool that does not require other libraries to work, i.e. to
minimize dependencies -- not because users will not have lyx2lyx
installed but because of runtime problems.
I am not sure I follow you, why would you have runtime problems if
lyx2lyx is installed? In case that was not clear, lyx2lyx is pure
python, just as your eLyXer. Or are you talking about the python modules
that lyx2lyx requires?
I am afraid that locking you tool to a specific lyx format is not a good
long term option.
