This would be an improvement. But still I would like to be able to set the
destination path and filename from LyX.

Example 1: 

* Export name.lyx (1.6 format) to the usb-stick at
  /media/usbdisk/name.lyx (1.5 format).
* take the usb-stick home and edit name.lyx with my old LyX 1.5,
* open it without any renaming etc,
* save back to the usb-stick (still 1.5 format of course),
* open with LyX 1.6,
...

Example 2: 

* At Feierabend, Export name.lyx to 1.5 format but overwriting the
  original.
* Use some syncing software to move all modified files to the usb-stick.
* -- as in Example 1.

Example 3:

* Export name.lyx to HTML with TTH, save it as name-tth.html
* Export name.lyx to HTML with LaTeX2HTML, save it as name-l2h.html
* Export name.lyx to HTML with L4H, save it as name-l4h.html
* Compare the results and decide which to publish on the web (or import
  with Word or ...).
