As far as the bib file is concerned, my opinion is that the
bib data should always be self contained, so that using @preamble
should not be encouraged (nor crossref in fact, or abbreviations).
Besides, the URL sould be described in an appropriate field,
which will be understood or not depending on the bst file
(natbib bsts understand the url field).
In that line, the \url command will be managed by the document.
In addition, if I view DVI as the example is, the url is
in rm font (not in tt font) and the ~ has been interpreted
as an unbreakable space (as in the dvi and pdf provided by the Wiki page).
I had to include in the lyx preamble
\usepackage{url}
to make it work.
So I suggest slight modifications in the example
(change the note field in url field, use plainnat as bst).
In addition, I ran the lyx file through tex2pdf
(it's a standard converter here) and the pdf is in Type 1 fonts
and hypertexted :-).
I will send you the updated files by mail.
