Applying whole heaps of things in FormPreferences has no effect on the
current instance of LyX. the user must first save the change then restart to
activate the change. Is this slated for change?
At the moment the mechanism does not exist to change things like the bind
files or ui files on the fly as the relevant code is buried within the
private part of class LyX. Perhaps the time is coming for class LyX to be
accessible from other parts of LyX. Eg, a (LyX *) in LyXView, together with a
LyX::Dispatch() method?

Eg
lyxrc.override_x_deadkeys
used in lyx_main.C
// Bind the X dead keys to the corresponding LyX functions if
// necessary.
if (lyxrc.override_x_deadkeys)
deadKeyBindings(toplevel_keymap);
Similarly with the ui and bind files.
