Here is a list of enhancements with milestone 2.4.0 and patches. I guess 
it is worthwhile to go though them anyway and either apply or re-target 
them:

https://www.lyx.org/trac/query?status=accepted&status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&description=~&reporter=~&summary=~&milestone=2.4.0&keywords=~patch&type=enhancement&col=id&col=summary&col=keywords&col=reporter&col=status&col=type&col=severity&desc=1&order=id

I will not manage to do more than give you this list. Maybe you just ask 
me if something is unclear that seems more efficient since you will look 
at them carefully anyway? I could also give more info on them but that 
is as much as I can do for this weekend. (Maybe I missed the road map 
but some warning would have been helpful a bit in advance. I guess it 
was communicated on some internal list.)
