Such changes are very unlikely. The basic features/environments that are in
now will stay. Changes that are likely to happen are more environments. I
guess this will cause no problems.
Anyway, appended is the patch for your graceful decision. The Extended patch
you have should also apply to the 1.3 branch, I guess.

[PATCH] Initial support for the memoir class
I have set up a first version of a layout file for Peter Wilson's memoir
class. The basic commands are supported. Most of the real sophisticated stuff
is not natively supportable by LyX due to framework limitations -- this is
the same as for the KOMA classes. Others might be added later (I think I have
caught most, though).
Anyway, I think it is in a state where it can be added to /layouts.
Attached you can find a patch with the template and the entry to
LaTeXConfig.lyx.in for 1.4 and additions to Extended.lyx.
Enhancements and corrections, especially from people who know memoir better
than me, are very welcome.
Shall I apply this to 1.4? Jean-Marc, what about 1.3.3?
Regards,
Jürgen.

+\layout Standard
+
+Memoir is a very powerful and constantly evolving class.
+ It has been designed with regard to fictional and non-fictional literature.
+ Its aim is to let the user have maximum control over the typesetting of

+ Memoir is based on the standard book class, but it can also emulate the

+\layout Standard
+
+Peter Wilson, the developer of Memoir, is known as the author of lots of
+ useful packages in the LaTeX world.
+ Most of them have been merged with Memoir.
+ Therefore, it is much easier to layout the table of contents, appendices,
+ chapter designs and such.

[PATCH] Initial support for the memoir class
I have set up a first version of a layout file for Peter Wilson's memoir
class. The basic commands are supported. Most of the real sophisticated stuff
is not natively supportable by LyX due to framework limitations -- this is
the same as for the KOMA classes. Others might be added later (I think I have
caught most, though).
Anyway, I think it is in a state where it can be added to /layouts.
Attached you can find a patch with the template and the entry to
LaTeXConfig.lyx.in for 1.4 and additions to Extended.lyx.
Enhancements and corrections, especially from people who know memoir better
than me, are very welcome.
Shall I apply this to 1.4? Jean-Marc, what about 1.3.3?
Regards,
Jürgen.

+Overview
+\layout Standard
+
+Memoir is a very powerful and constantly evolving class.
+ It has been designed with regard to fictional and non-fictional literature.
+ Its aim is to let the user have maximum control over the typesetting of
+ his document.
+ Memoir is based on the standard book class, but it can also emulate the
+ article class (see below).
+\layout Standard
+
+Peter Wilson, the developer of Memoir, is known as the author of lots of
+ useful packages in the LaTeX world.
+ Most of them have been merged with Memoir.
+ Therefore, it is much easier to layout the table of contents, appendices,
+ chapter designs and such.
+ LyX, though, does not support all of these goodies natively.
+ Some of them might be added to forthcoming releases
