This bug is about letting regular deletion work even when "protected against
manual changes" is on, because you're not making a _change_, you're deleting
the table, just like you could with a right-click and choosing "Delete" on the
menu.

I do want protection about manual _modification_ of a ToC or Index, not against
removing it altogether.

That was just to say that if I start selecting at some point, move down a
couple dozen pages, and press delete, I haven't even noticed there might be a
generated table in the middle, so I wouldn't even know why I'm being informed
about "write-protected content".
