You are right! The multiplicity of styles when it comes to macro names in latex is very annoying. In LyX it can be worked around and I think this should be looked into very seriously. Then you can easily switch from layout to layout in a document without problems, i.e. not have the environments get messed up. The environment names should be standardized in a meaningful way and let the .layout file perform the translation \author --> \IEEEauthor etc.
You mean having he styl Author use IEEEauthor for IEEE documents? It looks like our IEEEtran layout does not do that, but it could. Besides bizarre \and issues, many things are already possible for layout file authors.
