Hi all, I am currently travelling so excuse my android top-posting. Actually building a reusable in-memory representation for Python scripting of LyX documents was a requisite for eLyXer. You should not have trouble with large documents as my puny netbook eats 1000 page documents for lunch. Look at the Container class, and best of luck! Please ask in private any further questions.
