I understand, but that's a different issue (and I need to investigate
why we introduced the protection).
The background is
https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/9404
I am a bit irritated now as to whether we need to protect labels in
\thanks notes only (where we get an error otherwise) or in more cases.


Yes, \thanks is a footnote and that is fragile. However, using \thanks 
inside
a caption is wrong LaTeX code, because it also moved into the 
listoftables|figures
and you'll get it _two_ times in the output.
A \thanks should (without \protect) only be used together with the optional
argument which gets the caption titel without thanks.

\caption[foo]{foo\thanks{bar}}

 Then all is fine: for LaTeX and for LyX ... :-)
