\textsuperscript itself is not directly supported. Insert->Special Character->Superscript uses math mode to produce superscript. If you use amsmath (Layout->Document->Packages) then the superscripted text is smaller (which looks quite similar to \textsuperscript). Personally, I prefer ERT and \textsuperscript. Juergen.
