There is another way, but I think it is not adequate to a feature freeze. Lyx
could generate the latex file inserting itself custom source specials of the
form
\special{src:<mark> <filename>}
where <mark> could be a paragraph number, or an inset number. That is, the
source specials refer to the lyx file, not the latex file. Then
LFUN_GOTOFILEROW and texrow along with it could be dismissed, and we would
need some LFUN_GOTOFILEMARK instead, to be called back by xdvi through
lyxclient. As a side effect, this would permit to implement the latex
exporter as a separate program outside lyx (maybe that's why Lars want to get
rid of texrow).
It should be noted that inverse dvi search is not the only user of
LFUN_GOTOFILEROW:
