Restoring protection on categories

I'm doing a general portfolio for Eclipse Phase. Because of the nature of the setting - Transhumanist Science Fiction, I found it necessary to remove Category Protection in order to add two additional snippets to the Individual category. (For those not familiar with EP, all characters have a Morph, which is their physical body. This morph does not have to be same gender that the character identifies as, and most characters are capable of changing morphs with little trouble - a core concept of some transhumanist SF.) However, now that I have added these snippets, is there a way to restore the protection? Going to the Manage Category settings, there is no option to toggle protections back on.
 
The protection is meant to warn you that altering them may cause trouble when the sharing ability starts that importing new data from others may cause problems.

As far as I know the protection cannot be toggled back on. Your category now differs from the protected one anyway.

I assume that RW will try to conform the imported data into the categories. And since you only added some snippets I also assume that it will not cause much problems. But that is something that has to be tested when we do get the feature of sharing.
 
Also, if memory serves, when the category protection feature was added, LWD stated that at some point we would also be able to restore a category to its default structure. I'm not sure what the ETA is for the feature, but I'm guessing/hoping that it's implemented around the same time that sharing is enabled.
