This is a good idea, and it wouldn't be that hard to do: (i) When we
open the file, set a Buffer flag if we have to convert from an older

it's set.
Can you add this to trac, please?
Being confronted with a dialog after making some changes really sounds
like suboptimal workflow. If LyX 2.0 can save in 1.6 format, can it
just default to doing that for files that are already in 1.6 format?
This would be a significant change of behaviour. Up to now, LyX always
does a silent upgrade and saves in newest format by default (this is also
the most sensible thing for users/collaborations with just one LyX
version).
Please see my comments at http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/7398.
