The main issue as I see it is that some people have the hope that writing
raw latex will allow them to get almost native support for things that
LyX does not support yet. If one does not like the kind of code that
LyX outputs, I do not see how it could be possible to modify it and
hop that LyX will stick to this new form of writing.

I'd like to hear about reasonable use cases.
