As a GF pax on UA, I have been driven (MB SUVs) between connecting flights (when less than an hour's time) at both SFO and IAD. But not from the lounge to the gate.

It appears that the arrangement is reciprocal - to some extent at least. 
Since January United's Global Services members departing FRA and MUC in United Global First have access to the FCL. LH have been very quiet about this and the lounge access rules don't mention anything about it as far as I can see.
At least HON Circle members only need to be travelling in C to access United's Global First Lounges while GS members have to be travelling in UA F to access LH FCLs.

It is still too bad that LX is not allowed into UA F lounge

Really? I find the food in TBIT F to be atrocious. And what's worse, is that because none of it is out already, you don't know until you wait for somebody to bring it to you. At least in the C side you can get very mediocre things. The only thing I like about the F side is better champagne and not as crowded (at least in my experience, but since it's so small, I could see the F side getting pretty busy).
