you're wright. the problem is that lyx puts the footnote outside
the item-command. it's a question to one of the developers if
it's possible that lyx puts footnote, which is behind a label
inside the item:

\item{my Item\footnote{my footnote}]

this is with lyx:

\item{my Item]\footnote{my footnote}

and latex puts a space between item and footnotemark.

look at the attachment, there is the solution for footnotemark
and footnotetext. it's the same situation as in tables.

This is an example.

\begin_float footnote

This footnote is inserted just after the 
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset 

First\SpecialChar ~
tag
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset 

 item.
 I don't like the space after the tag.
\end_float 
 I love LyX.

 This footnote shows its label, but doesn't show herself at the bottom.
 There is also another problem: how to make footnotes longer than one line
 (words are connected with protected spaces)? 
\latex latex 

\backslash 
footnotetext{This\SpecialChar ~
footnote\SpecialChar ~
is\SpecialChar ~
inserted\SpecialChar ~
as\SpecialChar ~
ERT and this footnote is much more
 than one line when i write some nonsense so that this is nonsense}
\newline 

\backslash 
item[my Item
\backslash 
footnote{myfootnote}]
\latex default 
bla bla bla
