Hmm,

sounds rather complicated !
So I had a look at Herbert's Tips&Tricks page, there were two time 
related macros  for current timestamps etc.
After inserting this code in the preamble of the document and using ERT 
\timestamp{\small} works fine!
This is by no means automagic workaround I was looking for but it does 
its job (almost) painlessly!
Thx for answers and ideas from Tips&Tricks page!


cheers
