Unfortunately!! :-(

AFAIK, this is becouse LaTeX doesnot center by default and someone did not
like the nonstandard behaviour of LyX (or the actual patchy implementation).

There is an (untested!) workaround:
Find out the command used for insertion of graphics (\includegraphix ?) and
try to redefine it to contain the centering. Something like

let\oldincludegraphix=\includegraphicsx
\def\includegraphix{\centering \oldincludegraphix}

Obviously, this only works if you want to center all figures.
I am not sure if it works at all
I don't know, what happens with 2 figures on one line.

I'd strongly support the feature request. Having to type Alt-l a Alt-z for
every inserted picture is not really ergonomic and prevents me from the
famous "concentrate on content, not layout".

LyX could possibly define a new command
\newcommand{\centeredincludegraphix}{\centering \includegraphix} and use
this if a global document setting "center all figures" is checked.

A similar thing holds for the tables.
