What happens when you want to delete a citation in the text ?
You need to manually search the text (perhaps loading the lyx file
into an external text editor) and check if there is another
citation to the same document. If the answer is no, you should delete the
document entry in the bibliography, and if the answer is yes, you don't
delete it.
This is a lot of work, and with bibtex you don't need to do it.
PS: Does changing \usepackage{cite} into \usepackage{citesort} solves your
problem ?
