If this is not already reported as bug, please do so.
> * Must use units on all lengths
The used units are explained in a table in the UserGuide and some other manuals.
> * Must delete/recreate source tree to compile after config failure
A config failiure should not happen. But anyway that a config failiure destroys the config files
should be fixed since LyX 1.5.3.
> * Must run texhash after adding new LaTeX class/style
This is not a LyX issue and depends on your LaTeX distribution. How to add a package to your
distribution, is explained in its manual. For example under MikTeX, you don't need to run commands,
just select the package and press OK.
> * Must reconfigure after change to layout file
This is explained at several positions in the manuals.
> * You can make a script to do the reconfigure
? You can alsways write scripts to do things. But the reconfiguration is
already a script.
> * TOC/Index/crossreference often require multiple compiles to register
No. LyX takes care of the needed compile runs. When it doesn't, please report this as bug at
bugzuilla. (Some problems in this area have been fixes with LyX 1.5.2 when I remember correctly.)
> * Confusion between LyX code and LaTeX code
What do you mean?
> * LaTeX code is case sensitive, LyX code isn't
Same here, what do you mean?
