When designing the transfer protocol you should

this reminded my of CORBA: we could use it to have seamless invocations
among remote instances of LyX, couldn't we :-) ?
To ride a more recent wave, we should use websockets/json, then a webfrontent
would be possible, and we would be more attractive for the javascript people.
And then sometimes lyx could switch from C++ to javascript ;)
