    For me to work with the pure landscape environment was pretty
    annoying. I guess it is quite common that landscape pages are
    inserted without cutting off text. That is also how the
    sidewaysfigure/table works (which unfortunately does not rotate the
    page).


Granted, but if it would be that common, I suppose the (pdf)lscape packages would do it by default. There are many occasions where you don't want the environment to float.

I think sideways floats (figures, tables) are pretty common. That is why there is a package for it. The (pdf)lscape packages itself seem not to support floating at all. So both packages fail in providing either the one or the other.

Anyway, I just wanted to make the point that having a floating landscape page is common enough so that LyX users might want to have it, at least as an option.
