Bad form replying to myself, but I found the answer to the first two requirements at http://www.educat.hu-berlin.de/~voss/lyx/misc/marginpar.phtml. (I missed them before because I looked only under "Margins" instead of "\marginpar".) Still haven't found a way to insert a mark, though. :Peter -- Oh what a tangled web they weave who try a new word to conceive!
