Just to be clear, here are what I regard as the showstoppers:
Theorem-type environments aren't rendered; math support is marginal, esp
with regard to custom macros; BibTeX isn't supported, so far as I can
tell; cross-references omit the related text. Other things I'd want to
investigate would include support for AMS environments, and arrays and
the like generally; treatment of mini pages and the like. I also worry
about the lack of extensibility, i.e., the inability to deal with custom
styles.
To translate macros, custom latex styles, bibtex, cross-reference numbers,
etc.. ELyXer would haeve to work like tex4ht in two steps :
1) parse the LyX file and translate what it can and mark (Y) what he does
does not understand
2) Look in the pdf how latex has rendered Y and translate it to html
ELyXer looks like it is doing step 1 correctly. Step 2 could be added later.
People that have complex documents should use tex4ht.
I don't really regard BibTeX and cross-references as "complex", but as
intrinsic to what LyX offers.
