The document I'm now writing has many hyphenated words (e.g.,

seeing this before and don't know if its source is lyx or the spell checker
being used (I don't recall whether it's aspell or ispell).
No action is required on anyone's part but I find it interesting that
these compound words are seen as being mis-spelled, even after I
(supposedly) add them to the dictionary.

Those words are not marked on my system. I use Hunspell on Windows
(which is installed as default with LyX, I think). You can check your
spell-checker via
Preferences > Language Settings > Spellchecker
