Why doesn't LyX take care of updating the layout just as it takes care
of updating the .lyx file format? I ask this for both forwards and
backwards directions. I guess this means that lyx2lyx needs to know
where to find layout2layout.

Is this just a missing feature

I think so. Today I found out that the LocalLayout in Additional.lyx was still in the very old format 7. I stumbled over this because in the Spanish version all insets using the LocalLayout code were broken.

LyX has the button to update the layout to the latest format in the document settings. This works well, but not for the Spanish version where I had to edit the LyX file in a text editor to fix it. There was a strange problem because there was an accented character in the layout name. I played a bit to reproduce the error and to file a bug report but failed. So maybe it was a problem in one of the old layout formats which have been fixed in the meantime. I nevertheless used now a name without accents.

However the missing feature is that the action that is done after pressing the conversion button is not triggered by our scripts. The question is if such a feature is really necessary. I have no opinion

p.s. How can I insert the insets defined by the logical markup module?
