I recently needed to turn a big LyX document into a number of Word

format no longer worked on my system (I couldn't find oolatex in a new
install of MiKTeX 2.9), I resorted to pasting from the pdf to Word.
Using non-default fonts in LyX this meant that all bolding (section
headings) and emphasis (as italic) was preserved.

For what it's worth, I recently had to do something similar, and using
the LyXHTML export facility, then importing that into LibreOffice worked
quite well.

The problem was the footnotes -- over 800 of them. But I've seen that problem discussed on the list recently so perhaps next time ...

I see. Footnotes are a problem for this route, and the fixes won't help. Even if they're all at the end, they won't get imported into LibreOffice as footnotes. Fortunately, I only had about fifty of them to deal with.
