I'd like to highlight text and then apply the macro (via toolbar button/shortcut), but it passes through characters without escaping them automatically. This is intentional. The idea is that you can write some LaTeX, highlight it, and them hit ctrl-M to make it math. Or paste it. Or whatever. My goal is to apply macro-based styling to various keywords in a document, so a macro seems like the most natural way to mark those items and then update them, as needed. However, I'm happy to consider other, better, ways to accomplish that. This looks like a job for a character style. The Logical Markup module defines a 'Code' style that renders its content as monospace. Of course, it can be customized.

Detokenized Math Macros?
Colleagues, Is there a way to detokenize math macros in LyX such that characters like an underscore are not passed? I'd like to highlight text and then apply the macro (via toolbar button/shortcut), but it passes through characters without escaping them automatically. For example, please see the attached MWE. My goal is to apply macro-based styling to various keywords in a document, so a macro seems like the most natural way to mark those items and then update them, as needed. However, I'm happy to consider other, better, ways to accomplish that.
