FWIW, I think that rather than an all-powerful GUI for editing converters, file formats, etc, these things should be stored in flat platform-specific configuration files that can be packaged for distribution as 'plugins' eg a set of LyX configuration files + linux package dependences = support for Graphviz in LyX. This would take the voodoo out of the job of getting LyX working with various different file formats, and allow end-users to make use of *the tools they know already* in order to get extra features working with LyX. I say this, but I'm not going to come and help, so you best ignore me here :-)
Still, you are welcome to bring the subject and your thoughts to the development list. Maybe you could also create an enhancement entry in bugzilla too.
