Even if we don't right now, I think we should support unicode-insert 
0x20 0x20 0x20 0x20. Imagine that you want to insert a unicode string 
in the command buffer, repeating unicode-insert would be cumbersome...

Having checked the User's Guide and LyX functions manuals, I do have
some success in inserting one space (via unicode characters), but I
cannot think of a way to insert several unicode characters in one go.
# Successfully inserts one space
\bind C-S-a unicode-insert 0x20
\bind C-S-r space-insert normal

# Both fail to insert anything
\bind C-S-q unicode-insert 0x20 0x20 0x20 0x20
\bind C-S-w unicode-insert 0x20 unicode-insert 0x20

Are there other approaches to do this?

You can do whatever you like with keybindings. See the Shortcuts
