I agree that the current situation regarding \output_change and
\tracking_change is bad and should be fixed. I gave what I think is the
proper solution, taking into account the debate that was on the list.
The patch is very simple (see the earlier message:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.devel/159493 and:
http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/9841). Now what we would need for such a
change is if developers who took part in the discussion looked and say:
yes, this is the proper solution. I do not see this happening right now.
Then, what is a proper solution? You want a file format increase +
lyx2lyx + tex2lyx changes? I am more familiar with format increase now
so it's easier for me, although: 1) please not while I have another
format change pending because these things do not rebase very well, and
2) I will need help for tex2lyx. Another solution is to revert as I have
suggested.
Some questions on the second patch:
1/ can OUTPUT_CHANGES be toggled for a read-only document if user prefs
are not stored?
2/ when prefs are not stored, they are replaced by "false". Will this
always make sense to users? This is just a question that popped up in my
head, since we say "do not store" but something is actually stored.
It might just be a matter of wording of the option, actually.
