Agreed. Though it has to be
\RequirePackage{jurabib}[2004/01/25]
(\usepackage does not have an optional argument). Note, though, that this only
spits out a warning. An "ordinary" LyX user (who does not read the LaTeX log)
will never know that he has to upgrade.
Anyway, patch attached. I'll commit if noone objects.

OTOH using ERT for citation is a real PITA. It does not even work correctly,
since LyX does only run bibtex if there are some citation insets (AFAIR).
Also, jurabib gives an error if babel is loaded after it (which is the case
in LyX if "use jurabib" is not checked). So you'd have to care for that, too.
But I have to agree that your objections are valid. What about the following
compromise: Detect jurabib and convert all citation insets except those with
two optional arguments, which will be left as ERT? This should work 100%, is
not confusing and does only annoy the users who actually use two optional
arguments (It's also a visual clue that the two arguments could be
problematic). If they want to go on with jurabib order, they're left on their
own. Otherwise, all jurabib users would be left on their own.
