By constant re-asking, do you mean asking each time LyX starts? Would a comment on the dialog saying "To prevent this dialog being displayed in future, please save this document" suffice? To me, deleting these files on Save seems the correct place; at the point we can infer that the user has decided what they want to do. As it is I just comment out the deletes in my tree because they have burnt and/or frustrated me too often. -- John C. McCabe-Dansted
