In most editors, I have a set of memorized keystrokes to:
- invoke search/regex dialog
- type something that will replace " ([,.])" with "$1"
- execute it
- type something that will replace "([,.])[a-zA-Z0-9]" with "$1 "
- execute it.

And that's mostly it. In non-lyx editors (usually: word and openoffice) I also 
have to replace double spaces with single ones till there are no more left to 
be replaced. Luckily, lyx takes care of that.

I don't think that chktex is needed for that. Maybe just as we have spelling 
correction, we should have punctuation correction (alhtough built-in rather 
than external)????
