One big gotcha is catching that all the elements are found within the

Actually, that could be a good thing. Each pallet *.lxf file is just an archive
containing BRICK*.CHUNK part files. (The model *.lxf files are archives each
containing a MODEL100.MODEL file.) If a converter is ever programmed, it could
make keeping track of which files are official and which are converts much
easier, as the converted parts would be in a separate archive.
What will make converting files much more difficult is the “automatic Lego
connections” feature. The connection data would have to be added to each part
converted individually, so you probably can’t expect a program that will
instantly convert parts without any user input.
