I finally found what was my problem, and-- even better-- I solved it. My mistake was that I was trying to insert an end-of-frame NOT in the standard environment, but while the cursor was in some graphics environment (I think). Once I managed to get the cursor into a non-magical environment, the missing commands appeared in the Insert menu, and all is well. I guess Lyx tries hard to help the user by hiding from her the commands that cannot work in the current environment. That is a sensible thing to do, but when you are as ignorant as I was (until now) it can get very confusing and frustrating.

Okay.
In the 2021-06-25 version of the KOMA-Script PDF, Section 5.4 describes how
to set up headers and footers using, for example, \lehead{Report Title}. I'm
not seeing how to use \rohead*{scrheadings content} to display the section
number.
Section 5.5 describes the use of automark (and automark*) to place section
numbers in the header. If I have \lehead{Report Title} and \rohead{Report
Title} and add \automark{section} will that place the section number on the
left side of odd-number pages and the right side of even-number pages?
TIA,
