But if it was really a standalone document, I would have to unset master document property, right? Anyway, in my case, the problem is that my child document with the macros also define Nomenclatures. When I include it on all files and decide to generate the Master document, the list of Nomenclatures repeats its entries several times (obviously because the entry was indeed included several times). I am just looking for a more "user oriented behavior". I mean, "if I can see everything right on the screen, what's the problem?" This is how I feel about the current behavior. LyX is handling everything on the editor, since all math macros are interpreted correctly when I open any document, but I can't generate the file because of its internal structure. We should try to avoid consistency errors in LyX. If people decide to use ERT, we should expect unwanted behavior, but in a document using only LyX resources, it must never generate errors (or they should be rare, at least), doesn't matter what the user decides to do.
