That name is fine with me. I think I slightly prefer the sound of
"ProhibitNestingBy". I guess "NeverNestedBy" is more a property of the
underlying LaTeX mechanism (e.g., "a section is never nested in another
section") and "ProhibitNestingBy" is more a property of LyX's layout
feature (e.g., "LyX will prohibit the user from nesting a section in
another section"). I'm not familiar with the layout code, so whatever
you and Riki think is more consistent is fine with me.

Also, it takes me a little while to parse "never nested by none", but
would it make more sense for "never nested by *all*" to mean a layout
that cannot be nested at all?
