No, it does not. The dialog offers a checkbox to protect against "Manual
changes". Nobody would interpret that as preventing deletion.

That is not what the user intended to happen when inserting the table or index.
In fact, it is the _opposite_ of what the user intended. And if you think of a
long document with multiple generated tables (e.g. one per section) - it is not
possible to delete a large part of the document without a very long visitation
procedure.
