What could be done to make lyxeditor independent is:
Before lyx calls some external program (e.g. Skim), lyx sets an environment 
variable,
for instance 'LYX_SERVER_PIPE'. Skim may call lyxeditor, and I suppose, the 
environment
is inherited, so that also lyxeditor gets it.
Instructing lyxeditor to consider it should not be that difficult.
