Of course it is only necessary that LyX can open it. Only due to the
lyx2lyx bug you fixed today I realized that lyx2lyx was invoked every
time when I opened the generated LyX-file. If there is no lyx2lyx bug
nobody would mention that the lyx-file is not saved in the lyxversion of
the installed LyX.

Why that and where would you keep it?
But anyway if you also like 1) and 2) perhaps we should implement it in
future LyX versions.

I've never used master/child documents.
