But the installer already installs all needed packages. I can and will not ship all needed packages separately from MiKTeX. Installing the packages together with MiKTeX assures that you have a full functional, feature complete LaTeX-system. This also assures that you have tthe latest package versions - there are every day packages updates and the MiKTeX-developer releases them every week. So no matter when you install LyX, you'll be up to date.

Yes, but to be able to download it, you need of course an open internet 
connection.

I'm also wondering about this as this is the first time people complain about this and the installer is in the current shape since LyX 1.5.1. The installer Readme clearly states that you need an open internet connection for a full LaTeX-system.
