It's helpful, in case someone else has the same issue. Even months later, and searches the list.

The key is to put a label inside the Subequation box but outside the math environment. Then put labels on individual lines the math environment. Then you can reference either the whole subequation (e.g. 1) or individual lines (e.g. 1.1, 1.2, etc.).

I thought you had wanted there to be a visible number for the whole thing. I'm not sure I'd have figured out the solution anyway, though.

    The subequation stuff is a bit of a hack. Honestly, I don't know
    how to
    do this even in LaTeX; I suspect that LyX will not natively support
    whatever the solution might be. Complex constructs sometimes have not
    been implemented, just because no-one yet found a need.
