This dialogue is discussed in http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/8032 .
Enrico fixed it and check specifically comment 16.
BTW, this was released with 2.0.4.

Thanks for the pointer to those discussions. I think the dialog is
great, but let me go back and explain better what I did and why I
think there is an issue here (and perhaps two). In trunk a.k.a git
master, I try to export the examples/beamer.lyx file to PDF
(pdflatex). It takes quite long, and actually I think it will not
finish. There seems to be a problem with the LyX, the layout or the
class file. Anyway, when the dialog pops up, I click on "Stop it",
thus interrupt pdflatex. After doing so, the View button remains
greyed and the wheel indicating that an external process is running
keeps on spinning.
Can anybody reproduce?
Cheers,
Julien
So besides that my beamer.cls is too old for this file, I think there is
still some issue with this dialog, as compilation seems to continue even
after I click "Stop it". As we run pdflatex multiple times to get
references right, maybe it just interrupts the first pdflatex run but
doesn't prevent a new pdflatex instance from being launched? Just
guessing here.
