so on the top of introducing network stuff into lyx, we will also incorporate
libraries of gnupg into our code :)
There's always the option of:
~~ system("wget ... && gpg ... && cp ... $HOME/.lyx/...");
without "bloating" further LyX with extra-libs and memory usage :-)
An increasingly common trend I'm seeing in modern distros is that whatever
can be done manually by the user is instead automated (after the user gives
an "ok, go on"), e.g., download&install a codec if I try to open a
multimedia
file with a format my PC doesn't understand, etc.
In the case the lyx2lyx is auto-downloaded, then it should definitively be
also signed, and gpg seems a common tool to achieve that without messing
around with X509 certificates.
