Hm it's short and only calls lyx2lyx through some python profiler[1].
That's obviously nothing that a regular user will ever use. The python
hotshot module seems to be part of the 'normal' python package so it should
not require a new depedency.

I'm indifferent about having it in the package or not and so far nobody missed
it.
