I find it is nice to have the preamble accessible with a keyboard shortcut
directly, without the bother of using the mouse or having to navigate a
tabbed form.
In my case, since we have the "Layout->Document" form, most of what goes
into the preamble is not layout definitions, but other definitions.
IMHO, even with LyX, the user is programming a LaTeX document, so it's
better to have the preamble readily accessible. Consider an editor where
accessing the header of your C program (where you put #include's) is
complicated.
Lior.
