Thhanks, Paul and Julien. Your replies do what I was looking for.

I knew the "increase depth" feature, but I thought it was only for
enumerate/itemize lists. Not only does it what I needed, but it's effect
is also reflected in the LyX window. I love this software!

Paul, I have noticed there is a "Preamble" section in the theorems.inc
file. If it's about \theoremstyle and \newtheoremstyle commands, maybe I
can them there? (I'm thinking of reducing the number of files to be
hacked.) I more or less understand that the contents of this "preamble"
section is used by LyX for its internal TeX job.
