I don't mean that all of testmath.tex needs to be supported. I suggested it 
as an alternative to amsldoc and the short math guide if one wants a 
comprehensive test of mathematical equations. We still need to decide what 
part of math should be supported for the round trip, but for this decision 
you can assume that all amsmath commands work in LyX (if not I'll fix them), 
and only concentrate on what is problematic in docx/odt and what is needed.

I did not try yet. I imported it, and looked at the result (and the errors 
it produces), and this made me confident that I can fix the math parser 
without much work so that all mathematical formulas work. I did not look at 
the text (and I don't think that the text in this document is relevant at 
all), but if the mathematical formulas are correctly parsed, and possible 
errors in the text are fixed, then the result will be compilable.
