I loaded a document full of jpegs, and did a export->pdflatex. The resulting .tex compiled fine with pdflatex and not with plain latex, all as expected.
I then did an oldfashioned export->latex, and got a .tex that latex processed just fine. So nothing went wrong with the latex export, which seems to be the only this patch touches. I think this is a low-risk item that could go into 1.4.x, for it adds functionality without messing with other things. The only thing I would like, is somewhat better wording in the menus. Now it is "export->Latex" and "export->PDFLatex", the latter could be confused with pdf exports. I think "export->TeX (latex)" and "export->TeX (pdflatex)" might be better. This wording is the same as we use for the various pdf exports. Helge Hafting
