However, the way to change it (typically for headings) is very often class-dependent (classes have their own idea on how customization shall be done). A possibility would be to have a layout setting for allowing "standard" customizations. Those could be either disabled/not enabled in classes that are incompatible with the standards or, even better, be overwritten by the appropriate custom command.

makes Lyx's workarea sections pink indeed (it's just a test color, I
swear it's temporary :)), so Lyx is reading the layout alright. But
if I
output the document, both with Latex and LyXHTML, section labels are
black. Could someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
In fact, the Font block on the local layout only affect the editing
area. If you want to change the actual heading formatting you need to
use the titlesec package. For example, to set the section heading to
use the sans font defined in the document (\sffamily), in bold and
with its size set as \Large, assigning to it a custom color (I don't
like pink), write in the document preamble,
\usepackage{titlesec}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\definecolor{Gren}{rgb}{.3,.7,.3}
\titleformat*{\section}{
\Large\bfseries\sffamily
\color{Gren}}
