I'm monitoring the XeTeX mailing list and there is a fair amount of total
LaTeX newbies that are interested in XeTeX because they need to type a text
in an exotic language.

Moving to XeTeX would increase the potential user base of LyX and suppress
all the weird problems when an user manage to type something in Arabic /
Hebrew/ ... but cannot print it because the correct LaTeX fonts are not
installed.

Maybe a Berlin project...

Cheers,
Charles
