But then you break semantic markup. Not everyone wants url's to be typeset in
typewriter mode (actually, I think that this is against all typographic and
aesthetic rules anyway).
we were talking about urls in footnotes ... and a workaround.

hash in URL
I have a url containing a hash in a LyX document. I inserted it using
the Insert > URL menu item. In exported tex, it is as follows:
\url{http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD#Region_codes}
When LyX (or TeXshop) typesets the file using pdflatex, I get the
following error.

dissatisfaction with
You meant to type ## instead of #, right?
Or maybe a } was forgotten somewhere earlier, and things
are all screwed up? I'm going to assume that you meant ##.
I can get around this by deleting the hash (in which case it doesn't
appear in the PDF output). I also tried using the escape sequence for
the character as recorded in the LaTeX symbol list (\#), which avoids
the error, but appears as "\#" in the output. Two hashes in a row also
avoids the error, but in the PDF I get two hashes, which I don't want
either.
Is there any way to put a single hash in a properly typeset URL, using
LyX?
