We do not have any use for a non-option argument currently, so it does
not conflict with existing syntax. Moreover, one would be able to bind
that easily to a filemanager action.

Lars> lyxclient -c "buffer-new file.lyx"

Lars> might work better.

src/client/lyxclient -c "buffer-new file.lyx"
lyxclient: Connected to /tmp/lyx_tmpdir14791Fyur52/lyxsocket
ERROR:buffer-new file.lyx:malformed message

However the following works:

fantomas: src/client/lyxclient -c "LYXCMD:buffer-new file.lyx"
lyxclient: Connected to /tmp/lyx_tmpdir14791Fyur52/lyxsocket
INFO:buffer-new file.lyx

I do not find it very user friendly...

Indeed.
