Considering the amount of time I had to spend in documents which did not run

would be nice to have a feature (or an external prg) checking for those
characters.
A generic error reporting for all programs called by LyX would be a great
help indeed.
For the "Unicode in bibtex database problem", the solution might be to
use a unicode aware processor, e.g.
* CrossTeX_, a backwards-compatible, improved bibtex
re-implementation in Python (including HTML export).
(development stalled since 2 years)
* Pybtex_,a drop-in replacement for BibTeX written in Python.
* BibTeX styles& (experimental) pythonic style API.
* Database in BibTeX, BibTeXML and YAML formats.
* full Unicode support.
* Write to TeX, HTML and plain text.

You can also use biber with biblatex:
