I'm bringing this up again with another idea:
Would you consider adding support, either through a layout file or the
document settings menu, for the inclusion of auxiliary files that need
to be copied to the temporary folder where and whenever LaTeX
compilation takes place.
This is a possible scenario: I'm distributing a (thesis) template that I
want people be able to compile as-is (no one would want to use it unless
it works from the start). It has many chapters, it has a bibliography
file attached to it, etc.
I'd like to switch from bibetex to biblatex, but can't use the hack
that's been recommended as I can't tell the absolute path of the
bibliography file (it depends on where the user will unpack the files).
There's currently no way (is there?) of letting LyX know that some files
from the current folder need to be present for the compilation, and I
thought it would be nice to have it.

I'm wondering what went wrong with GSoC 2014 promises for biblatex/LyX.
Lack of manpower.
