While not using Vim but Jed, I second the statement that there are
task that are more efficiently be done in a text editor.

This is why I would greatly welcome improved support for external
editing of the lyx source:

* open file of current buffer in a configurable application,
  reload buffer once this application is closed.
  
* open a lyx file in LyX and jump to a specified place/line, so that I
  can easily go to `grep` results or the place I have been editing in
  my valued text editor.
