Currently, without any special plugins installed, Leopard treats the LyX
file as a text file and shows it as such. So I didn't have to change
anything in Leopard at all to get that functionality. The display of the raw
lyx is slightly helpful, but not really.

I am considering diving in and making a quicklook plugin in that does
something/anything more helpful, and was really asking if anyone had
bothered hacking themselves something before I started.

Really, all I'd desire is a plugin that:
* "lyx -e pdf <file>"
* quicklook points to that file.

However, this brings in the overhead of having the entire file processed
lyx->pdf.  And I have no idea on how QuickLook info is cached.
