Description
From jabref created by [mpatas](https://github.com/mpatas): JabRef/jabref#9950
When one right clicks on some selected text in a field, one has a choice of "Protect selection" (in submenu "Protect terms") that puts "{" before the selection and "}" after it. Perhaps it would be worth to have an opposite action, "Unprotect selection", that would remove all such "protections"? It would be especially convenient when, the imported record has protected words in all caps, and one wants to use, for example, title case.

Research direction
Start by locating the existing "Protect selection" action in the field context menu and trace how it adds braces. Done means an inverse "Unprotect selection" action is available in the same submenu and removes the relevant protection braces; verify it with the surrounding UI behavior.
