Then I took a brute force approach: I wrote a bash script which replaces the childs preamble by the masters preamble (thanks to lyx' file format this is not a big deal ;-) (I had the intention to port that bash-script to python but didn't have the time ATM.) For me that works very well. The bash script is a dirty hack. If you are intereseted ask me personally.
