It's not available as the "usual" <sub>2</sub> - but since 
the text fields do accept unicode, and the subscript 2 is a 
unicode character (that would be code 2082), you could 
simply type it into the text field.

Problem: Internet Exporer does NOT know that character 
(shows as tiny rectangle), though it will show correctly in 
most any other browser (e.g. Safari/Mac, where you can enter 
these special characters by dragging them from the character 
palette to the text field, or Firefox/Mac/PC)

Sorry, guess it's "CO2" (or maybe "carbon dioxide"?) for now...
