Lyx allow custom bullets for the bulleted list. There is a nice selection from available fonts, and even an option for entering your own latex command for a custom bullet. Great for using an image, for example.
All this works, but there is a problem with custom bullets, it is hard to make changes. Re-open the custom bullet dialog, and the previous custom bullet is gone. I get a blank box, instead of an opportunity to adjust my existing custom bullet. Of course I can get at the command by "export->latex" but that is cumbersome. Helge Hafting
