I have removed all of the screws from the rear cover of my MacBook Pro 17" (i5 128 SSD).
When I proceed to try and lift off the cover it appears to be secured in the middle of the cover...which is really odd.
Is this held by tape, a hidden screw, a clip? How do I proceed?
Es esta una buena pregunta?

Turns out there's just two clips in the center that the rear cover clips into. With gentle force it will pop off after the 10 screws are taken out.

I had the same issue.
Trouble is, how do I re-attach those clips when re-assembling the computer?
You are correct. Just press the back plate against the Mac's innards. It will click. Thanks a lot.

For personal attention please start your own question so you don't get lost in an old question.
I was told by a Genius at the Apple Store that the clips should re-attach once the back case is on and the machine is flipped back over with gentle pressure on it.
Seemed to work for me when I put in an Optibay to replace my Optical Drive with more HDD space.
I have the same problem. The issue is that those 2 clips fit into 2 little bracket type parts that are screwed to inside of the case. One of mine is broken (plastic middle part) It is to unscrew it. But I can not find anywhere where to buy this little piece of plastic
