I'm not a lyx developer, however I'm willing to help in the windows lyx / python task.
It is not a big task to develop a customized tiny (< 2M) python distro with cx_freeze or similar tools which can be delivered with a windows lyx installer and does not infere with a possibly installed python on the users OS. About one year ago I sent Ruurd privatly a proposal for a tiny [msys, perl(msys) and python-2.3(win32)] enviroment which could be placed i.e. somewhere in the share folder. I never got feedback. A users requirement for an full installation of a spezific windows python version is not necessary and desirable in my opinion.
