That is what I did, and you are correct that the choice is there.

But my point was that it did not unprotect the cell. It allowed me to
unprotect the entire Table, but the cell was still protected.

So, it doesn't 'work' as a workaround.

Also, Cor just confirmed that they intentionally (WHY???) removed the
context menu, but that there is a bug in that there should be an option
to unprotect the cell from the Table Menu.

Now to go open a bug/feature request to bring back the most useful
context menu choice for this...
