Well, it's all in the code, so one could certainly write patch witch moves the whitespace to the next line. The issue is that any oversight in such patch would lead to catastrophic dataloss bugs for everyone else and one has to ask whether this cornercase is worth the risk. My take is that - if you mess with .lyx you need to respect its whitespacing and set your editor accordingly - the real solution would be to actually do document comparison feature right, so one does not need to edit raw .lyx file...
