In many ways I agree, but I also think that several scripts would 
benefit from knowledge of the various lyxdirs. Not least because we 
could create a library of useful shell functions rather than copy 
code into each and every script we distribute.

Returning to the original problem, perhaps your 
        $$converter{latex, dvi}
suggestion is the 'least worst' after all.
