I don't see any \parbox in the latex export of the example, but
\begin{tabular}{|m{5cm}|m{5cm}|c|c|c|}
So this is *not* a way to create a \parbox without ERT.
In fact I began by patching a minipage by itself,
and the widthcontrol problem drove me to add a table columnwidth.
To conclude, it's not necessary to insert a minipage, unless you plan
to format things in a way only allowed by minipage environment.
