This error is indeed related to one of LaTeX' weird restrictions, whih
says that a footnote or margin note cannot be in the text of a
section, in particular since this text will be copied to the table of
contents (which is why paragraph* works: it does not appear in TOC)
and having the note there makes LaTeX feel strange. There is already
some code in LyX to work around this problem with footnotes, and I was
not aware that margin notes suffered from this too...
I'll try to have a look at it but don't hold your breath: this is
really tricky stuff.
