Is it possible to paste images without asking for save path and Lyx
choose one automatically for me ? I believe many people use image
pasting heavily and it's a waste of time to open the save file dialog
every time. So I really hope there's an option for this.
There is an existing one which is marked as implemented as follows:
Paste graphic from clipboard: prompt for filename/location (but have
reasonable defaults to allow things to go quickly), save clipboard
picture, and include into the lyx document at the cursor location.
(Motivation: I take notes in LyX during mathematical lectures, and I
often want to include figures. With a tablet PC, it's quite easy to
get the figure into the computer in real-time, but there are many
steps to get that figure into LyX -- it's difficult to do it in
real-time. How can that process be streamlined? May also help to allow
graphics to be stored within the LyX file, so the user doesn't have to
bother coming up with path/filename for each figure?)

but as the statement says, "have reasonable defaults to allow things
to go quickly"
It's not implemented completely , we can go quicker by not showing the
save dialog at all, and allow for some default image display
parameters to be set somewhere. (for example, I almost edit the width
to 15 cm every time).
Should I edit the Feature Request poll wiki page to get my wish
delivered ?
I'd rather file an enhancement request on trac. But I don't know how
many people are avaiable to work on this.
