For me to work with the pure landscape environment was pretty
annoying. I guess it is quite common that landscape pages are
inserted without cutting off text. That is also how the
sidewaysfigure/table works (which unfortunately does not rotate the
page).
Granted, but if it would be that common, I suppose the (pdf)lscape
packages would do it by default. There are many occasions where you
don't want the environment to float.
I think sideways floats (figures, tables) are pretty common. That is why
there is a package for it. The (pdf)lscape packages itself seem not to
support floating at all. So both packages fail in providing either the
one or the other.
Anyway, I just wanted to make the point that having a floating landscape
page is common enough so that LyX users might want to have it, at least
as an option.
