Learning by example:
Correct output by LyX-1.1.6fix1:
\caption{My math\protect\( _{i}\protect \)test}\end{figure}%
Incorrect output by LyX cvs:
caption{My math\(_{i}\)test}\end{figure}%
LyX-1.1.6fix1 adds these \protect statements only inside of captions (and
maybe some other critical constructs) but not to formula in common text.
