It seems that an featrue in longtable has been forgotten.

How hard would it be to implement this now?

I see the \caption command in the longtable docs.  When I export the LyX
file to LaTeX and insert my own caption manually, it works great.  And I
know how to insert LaTeX codes in the file with LyX.  But what I'd like
to know is how to insert the \caption command at the right place in the
file using LyX.  By "right place" I mean after the begin{longtable} but
not in any cells of the table.
