I've started doing my academic writing in MultiMarkdown (MMD) using Scrivener. It generates LaTex (or PDFs via LaTex) and for me is even easier than Lyx. When needed, you just embed raw LaTex in the doc as <!--xxx-> comments or just do the final polishing in your usual LaTex editor.

I almost forced the team to choose Markdown, and then had to change my advice and say "Let's go with LaTex" because there are so many features MS Word users want to use... I don't remember exactly the one that prompted the switch - maybe footnotes, tables or referencing.
