On Macos 10.7.4, Lyx 2.0.4 i want to export a Lyx document to normal Latex.

I noticed, that in the exported document, each line has a LineFeed (LF)
even though it is not the end of a paragraph.
If you open the Lyx document in a text editor, each line has a LineFeed
too.

Yes, this is a feature. By default it is cut at 65 characters (a bit more in reality), but you can change this limit to 10000000 in Preferences>Output>General.

If you export to open document and from there to latex, the document
preserves the LineFeed for the end of a paragraph. Only every paragraph
in LibreOffice and the exported latex file has a LF.

Yes, Libroffice is not LaTeX.

Reason: Latex compiles the exported files fine, but editing in a Latex
Editor like TexMaker gets pretty nasty with a LF for each line and not
only for each paragraph.

"Fancy" LaTeX editors like TexMaker or TexShop seem to think that unbounded lines are cool, but serious ones (say, emacs) cut lines for you. Why?

Assume you have an error at line 1216, and this line has 3000 characters. Is it easy to find the culprit?

Assume you want to collaborate and use a version control software like svn, then any concurrent modification in a paragraph will create conflict (same line). With broken paragraphs, the situation is better.
