I am not kind today (read: short on time), so I'll give you a recipe to do
it yourself (it is really easy).
(...reading lyx_1_4.py to find the earlier conversion...)
You did add InsetSpace with new space types without lyx2lyx conversion.
Shame on you! ;-)
What needs to be done:
1. fix revert_spaces() so that it converts other spaces than ~ to ERT.
Something like (untested)
def revert_spaces(file)
regexp = re.compile(r'(\\InsetSpace\s+)(\S+)')
i = 0
while 1:
i = find_re(file.body, regexp, i)
if i == -1:
break
space = regexp.match(file.body[i]).group(2)
if space == ~:
file.body[i] = regexp.sub('\\SpecialChar ~', file.body[i])
i = i + 1
else:
file.body[i] = regexp.sub('', file.body[i])
file.body[i+1:i+1] = ''
i = insert_ert(file.body, i+1, 'Collapsed', space', file.format
- 1)
2. Convert \, --> \thinspace from 243 --> 244. You can use the existing
revert_spaces() as an example
3. Convert '\InsetSpace \thinspace' to ERT from 244 --> 243. The code can be
very similar to the above.
Implementing this is left as an exercise for the reader :-)

I'd prefer that too, but since we are going to xml after 1.4.x and in freeze
now I think that we should not put too much time in polishing the current
format.
