After a survay of the documentation for LaTeX unicode support, I found
the distinction rather to be:

utf8: Unicode utf8 definitions of the LaTeX-package inputenc. Currently
      only a limited range of characters (mainly for Latin scripts) is
      supported.

utf8x: Unicode utf8 with based on the LaTeX package ucs (comprehensive,
       including Latin, Greek, Cyrillic and CJK scripts)

Thanks, for investigation. I changed the description of the encoding in the UserGuide for the upcoming LyX 1.6 accordingly.

"LaTeX default Same as use language's default encoding, but the LaTeX-package inputenc is not used. You probably need to load some other packages manually in the preamble
  ...
+ and specify the used encoding for text parts in foreign languages as
+ ERT."

I added this too.

thanks and regards
Uwe
