That's great.  It would be a useful feature!

If Lyx can combine ps files and latex files like that, then they don't even have to be produced by xfig. Am I right?

Cheers

You mean like this ;-)

Excuse the poor resolution of this screenshot, but I wanted to make the
image file as small as possible.

What you can see is an Instant Preview image of an XFig external inset in
LyX 1.4.0cvs. Not available to the public yet, but getting closer.

For Instant Preview see here:
