Hi Guenter,
I would assume that only a LaTeX source file is kept, no other files.
With a strategy of having multiple files, there are other issues. I would prefer having one file for everything, but I am interested to hear arguments for the other case; maybe I can be convinced that multiple files (LaTeX + LyX-specific features) are better :-)

for many features.

However, it is also desirable to keep the LaTeX code simple. For features
that are merely related to displaying things (inset open/collapsed, "lyx
zoom" factor for images), a comment may indeed be the simplest way. If the
comment is garbled or lost, the default (inset open, 100 % zoom) applies.

Actually, I would not like LyX GUI settings to turn up in the LaTeX file at
all. Non-LyX workers will be offended, others can restore them, and in the
most asked for application of the round-trip feature -- editing in the
Source View -- this is not required as LyX can keep the GUI settings.
