I proposed the same recently:

Oh, sorry for not looking more carefully before posting!
That it was not implemented has a technical reason:

LyX 1.5.3 is already aware of the \text box. That means when I enter in
math-mode "\text Space" LyX automatically displays that as a box/inset.
What do I have to put into my bind-file to get this same box (without
typing \text), i.e. what is the function/LFUN name I have to use?
I'm too limited in C++ to check if the user has set in LyX to use AMS or
not. When you know a bit C++ you could try to provide a patch starting
with mine here:

I'm afraid that is above my C++ skills, too.
Thanks,
