Umm, Lyx is only following standard typographic convention --
The *first* paragraph of a section, or after a figure, an equation,
a table, a list, etc., is *not* indented. Only a paragraph
following another paragraph gets indented.
Take a close look at some books if you don't believe me.
As far as I can tell, only in the US do people indent the first
paragraph in a section, and even here, only those with no typographic
or publishing experience. (I suspect that M$ Word has a lot do do
with this...)
