It seems you did miss my recent patch.
It is a pity that we could not avoid wasting of time and ressources...

I actually like my lately posted patch more than this version:

 * shorter acmsiggraph0-92.layout (by "Input" of acmsiggraph.layout)
 
 * obsoletion warning in the labels of non-supported styles in the old layout
   and placing them in an "Obsolete" group. 
   
 * Fix "intitle", so that no ERT \maketitle is required (tested with old and
   new documents, with and without teaser figure)
   
 * Corrected "teaser" label (it's a figure (with caption), not just an image).

But see also below.

The problem is, that the new section in the Development.lyx file is a draft
that is not finally agreed on. Especially, the jury is out whether a new
*.cls version with same name merits a separate new *.layout file or should
rather be handled by updating the existing layout.

Reconsidering, I prefer to update the existing layout:

* This can be done in a way that the updated layout is also usable as
  local installed one in older LyX versions.
* The downside is, that adding styles to a layout requires a file format
  update.

The full rationale is on my post to "aastex6 patch" from today.
