Understand. Maybe a question with an easy answer: Assuming that ssconvert
creates a long table or any other kind of table, is there a way to add a
table label (caption) other than using a floating object? This is why I was
using the nested structure which as you say is not necessary.
I think I understand - you want your spreadsheet table to have an
automatic table number?
I don't know any good way to do that. The ssconvert utility exports a
longtable, which is a thing not supposed to go inside a float. Also,
ssconvert does not add the necessary LaTeX code to get a numbered longtable.
The ideal solution is to extend ssconvert, so it (optionally) produces a
numbered longtable or a normal table that can be put into a float. You
will have to contact the gnumeric developers for that though.
Another solution is to export manually, instead of using the "external
material" inset. That is, run ssconvert yourself, and import the
exported latex file into LyX. It is then possible to change it - either
turn the longtable into a normal table, or change it to a numbered
longtable. The downside is that you have to re-do all of this if you
ever change the spreadsheet - while the "external inset" tracks the
spreadsheet file and any future changes you make to it.
