Why do you remove these files? IMHO creating a new file format (here: 227)
makes only sense if lyx2lyx can convert to and from the last format (here:
226). If this is not possible you can as well include the box changes in
the 226 format. The effect is the same: Files created in the original 226
format cannot be read by later lyx versions.

This has the disadvantage that files created by some development snapshots
cannot be converted anymore.
A side note: I find the filenames very confusing. I never know what
lyxrevert_225.py or lyxconvert_225.py does: revert/convert _to_ 225 or
_from_ 225?

I get this one if I try to read a 225 file with lyx with your box patch:
$ ~/misc/lyx-devel/src/tex2lyx$ ../lyx minipage-new.lyx
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/georg/misc/lyx-devel/lib/lyx2lyx/lyx2lyx", line 197, in ?
main(sys.argv)
File "/home/georg/misc/lyx-devel/lib/lyx2lyx/lyx2lyx", line 190, in main
__import__(mode + str(fmt)).convert(header,body)
ImportError: No module named lyxconvert_225
It works if I add an empty lyxconvert_225.py file and change the format list
in lyx2lyx.
