User tests: Successful: Unsuccessful:
In Joomla 3.3.6 and 3.3.7 the Plugin "Button - Article" (plugin type: editors-xtd) is protected and cannot be unpublished.
Steps to reproduce the issue
Install Joomla 3.3.6 or 3.3.7,
Go to Extensions > Extension Manager > Manage
Search for editor-xtd plugins (Filter: Type = plugin, Folder = editors-xtd)
It will show 4 editor-xtd plugins, the "Button - Article" plugin is marked as "protected".
Expected result
I use JCE editor and from usability point of view, would like to unpublish all unused buttons that are displayed below the editor. In previous versions I was able to unpublish all 4 "Buttons".
Actual result
All buttons, except the "Button - Article", can be unpublished.
The "Button - Article" is marked as protected.

Yes, thanks. I just found out that it still works via Plugin Manager (which I usually use to unpublish).
This time I was using the Extension Manager and was confused that I couldn't do it via Extension Manager > Manage
Why is the plugin plg_editors-xtd_article "protected" and the other three xtd-editor plugins aren't?
I agree that it doesn't make sense to have this plugin protected. You should actually be able to even uninstall it without causing any issues.
Good point JM!

Unprotecting should only be done when it allows install after uninstall.
I think it should work with the Discover option. (BE --> Extensions --> Extension Manager --> Tab:Discover)
But i have not tested.

Knew that, problem is that doesn't work always. My issue was not to unprotect in those situations.
In the mean time I tested it and it does work. At least if you restore the plugin and the language files for the plugin in administrator/languages.
@test Ok, Issue confirmed, PR solves issue
Tested by phpMyAdmin unprotecting. Uninstalled using Extension manager->Manage->Uninstall.
Restored plugin from distribution. Discover->Install. Noticed missing language files. Restored them as well. Checked functionality by creating new article using button to insert article reference. Checked editting existing article inserting reference. Both worked fine.
Good point with the updates!
Please test the related patches

You can disable it via the Plugins manager.
