Thanks for clarifying. I am still confused by a bit, though. For

They shouldn't (but they are not used anyway).
Then I am not sure why we discuss these translations on this and the
users lists. Seems like waste of time for everyone if we don't use the
translations.
under translation fr there is:
"List of Figures" "Liste des figures"
but in the generated pdf I have "Table des figures" (probably that's
what babel generates)
And this is correct. The babel translations can be considered "canonical"
(since they are widely used).

The file layouttranslations has a simple syntax, is easily customizable,
and will live in the user directory. I was quite excited by this
feature. I am surprised that it's not used fully.
There is an opportunity here to centralize all output-related
translations into one file and have our translations consistent
everywhere (not only thinking about different latex versions here, but
also about LyXHTML output and so on).
