Looks like the old 4.1 layout is still valid also for 4.2.
The only difference is the the use of revtex4.2 class instead of revtex4.1
The attached may be enough ...

Copy the 3 files to your userdir/layouts (on unix most probably ~/.lyx/layouts)
and do a 'Tools->Reconfigure' in lyx.
Restarting lyx, you should be able to use the class.

Probably not. It is very easy to do. It may not even need very much
modification at all, and we are here to help.

In any event, LyX is user-written software. Nothing happens with LyX
unless some user does it in their spare time.

Stemming from the APS, the revtex package is probably among some of
the most heavily used latex packages in natural science and physics.
The 4.2 version of revtex is out since more than a year. Yet my LyX
only shows a revtex4-1.layout. What am I missing? Can I get this from
somewhere else?


No one has needed it yet, I suppose. It shouldn't be too hard to create,
simply by starting with the 4.1 file and modifying it as necessary. If
you do this, please post the file, so we can include it in future releases.

From your DIY suggestion I understand that as of today revtex4.2 
articles indeed cannot be edited using LyX. What a pity. Modifying any 
LyX *.layout file is beyond me. Thx. anyway.

No one has needed it yet, I suppose. It shouldn't be too hard to create,
simply by starting with the 4.1 file and modifying it as necessary. If
you do this, please post the file, so we can include it in future releases.
