R. H., to answer your question directly, yes I miss them :). I am used to Vim, 
and I often wish I could use Vim-like features in LyX. e.g., I love using 'g;' 
in Vim. I think the first 'g;' in LyX can be down with "Navigate back" ('Ctrl + 
shift + <' or something like that) but I would love to go through the entire 
change list as quickly as with 'g;'.

Also, I've requested persistent undo (https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/12578), 
which I've gotten used to in Vim.

I imagine Emacs users have similar desires to use Emacs features in LyX.

That said, without considerable work, I don't see it happening in LyX anytime 
soon.
