Yes, many parts in LyX code are very coupled and some change can cause
unexpected consequences in seemingly unrelated places (I've already
encountered this for much smaller changes). So without solid knowledge
of LyX code it will be hard not to broke anything.
Introducing common testing framework (for both unit and integration
tests) should help with confidence that things still work after
introducing the change (but it is not so simple for gui stuff). I think
this should be the first step before doing such significant
modifications. Recently I've sent a message on this subject in this
mailing list but have not received any feedback.
