It seems that literate programming guys are good at coding and
documenting their code... If it was not the case, people would ask
what's the point of literate programming ;)

Me too.

I think this script should become part of the reLyX distribution, even
better, it might be possible to merge it with reLyX, now that the code
exists. Until then, it could be packaged and installed along with
reLyX.
It would probably be a good idea to find a name with 'lyx' in it,
though. 'nwconvert' looks like a very generic name to me...
