Have you tried setting keybindings inside your lyxrc file for such
customization? The Customization Help document speaks about setting
up such functionality.

It used to be in older versions of LyX you could use SHIFT+arrows to
select in math mode. I find this feature crucial, as it allows me
to do
algebraic manipulation in LyX far faster than I could write it out by
hand, eliminating my paper dependence. The new version looks snazzy
and
has a bunch of cool new features, but I have pinned the old one
because
this is simply a deal killer for me.
Having to reach all the way over to the mouse is irritating. I cannot
LyX notes in realtime anymore. Guess this is why you don't apt-get
upgrade during lecture:-)
If I'm the only person like this I can just never upgrade, old LyX
wasn't lacking anything I needed and didn't crash too often; but I'd
like the new stuff *drools over tab completion in math mode*
Thanks again for all the free software, etc etc. Debian saves me
money AND time.
