Where do I find this new file?
(I did an update of my trunk clone but lyx/lib/languages is still in
the old format.)

This depends. For example, you can also use
... convenient shortcuts for loading languages with specific options:
‣ ogerman = german with option ‘spelling=old’)
i.e. PolyglossiaName ogerman
"babelshorthands" have the warning:
NB: is feature has not been mu tested and should be considered
experimental.
Are babelshorthands used by LyX or only accessible via ERT?
In the second case we do not need to activate them via GUI but leave
this to the user preamble.
However, in any case might it be better to provide a PolyglossiaOpts
keyword, even if it is not used in the first version of the new file...
