I disagree somewhat strongly - footnotes to table-floats (or endnotes as
they are more properly called) are used all the time (in astronomical
journals, at least), and they appear under the table, inside the float :-)
The AASTeX package (for which I created a LyX layout) actually defines
\tablenotemark and \tablenotetext commands to deal with this in a sane
fashion. I expect LyX could create a similar functionality.
