This plan exists for ages. The graphics inset even was already ditched at
some point in time, but it got reintroduced later, because the external
inset did not work that well back then. IIRC there is also a bug entry for
that. You will be a hero if you finally manage to do this!
which bug number ? Or, what to exactly search for in the database ?
Please don't give up the generality of the external inset. If I would do the
conversion I would remove the graphics inset completely, write some lyx2lyx
to convert graphics insets to external insets, and then improve the user
interface of the external inset, possibly using some ideas from the graphics
inset.

that's also my feeling: external material seems more generic than graphics, and after all each graphics may be handled via the RasterImage external material, or probably a variation of it that merges together at least the RasterImage, Dia and XFig external material types (or the other way round, i.e., each different file type into its own external material kind -- which one is best?).

I'm not sure why some of the external material contents are not previewed on the screen.
