So to conclude, I think it's ok to use the paragraph alignment dialog to 
make the figure centered in LyX 1.4 and later. (Hope I got this right)

Right, lyx exports a centering environment instead of a center environment
as previously:

\begin{figure}
\begin{centering}
\includegraphics{/usr/local/share/lyx/clipart/platypus}
\par\end{centering}
\caption{test}
\end{figure}

However, the visual appearance of the figure in the inset does not reflect
the status of the paragraph setting:
 - flush left for Left, Right and Center
 - indented for Justified.
Should be centered when  Paragraph is Center, flushed right
when paragraph is Right, thats the only way to see how the Paragraph is set
without opening it.

Put an hfill before and after the graphics, on the same line:
Insert-Special Formatting-Horizontal Fill (Lyx 1.4)
Insert-Special Character-Hfill (Lyx 1.3)

You can also center-align the paragraph containing the graphic (even within a 
float), but I've had fewer problems with the Hfill.

Put an "hfill" before and after the graphics, on the same line:
Insert->Special Formatting->Horizontal Fill (Lyx 1.4)
Insert->Special Character->Hfill (Lyx 1.3)

You can also center-align the paragraph containing the graphic (even within a
