these things strikes me when working with lyx and the beamer class and 
graphics in particular.

1) it would be really nice if there was an image preview when selecting 
graphics to insert.

2) graphics do not always load when opening a lyx file -> images just say 
"Not shown" until you have scrolled up and down several times. sometimes 
they dont load at all. maybe a load images button was in order - or 
right-click the image and "force reload"? that would also solve the problem 
that when externally modifying the image, lyx doesnt know (lyx ought to 
check for that btw).

3) the scale image selection is confusing. if i select the height and width 
in some unit, and check the "Maintain aspect ratio" - what is the limiting 
axis?

4) in particular when working with beamer - i waste a lot of time resizing 
images to fit the paper. it is quite obvious that i mean the image to fit 
the slide and not go off the borders. perhaps lyx should help in doing that?
