Well, in almost all cases we have just a single 'const'. I find const QRect rc = ...; const int i = 3; const bool b = true; or even const QRect rc = ...; const int i = 3; const bool b = true; more pleasant to read than QRect const rc = ...; int const i = 3; bool const b = true; However, placing 'const' at the right is (apart from formatting) about the only thing which is done consistently within LyX, so 'it is good as it is'.
