Canonical solution is mentioned in makeindex.dvi (part of your
distribution), page 5:

   \newcommand{\ii}[1]{{\it #1}}

and then you can say:

   \index{gnat|ii}
   
which makes this particular page number italicized. I did not try it,
but I think, that you could try to write directly "gnat|ii" (without
quotes) to the particular dialog box of LyX. What does it do?

   Herbert, don't you think, that this could go to the Tips?
