Agree with downlist to Least Concern.
In Timor-Leste it also occurs in (quite open and sometimes low; <10m tall) woodland of Eucalyptus alba along the north coast, and also open forest of Eucalyptus urophylla. I really have not got a handle on their abundance in this habitat. They do seem to be much less common than in tropical forest, but are present and using it as breeding habitat. It greatly increases their distribution on Timor island, and presumably adds some 1000s of individuals.
I expect the Timor-Leste population alone may be over 10,000 individuals
Many thanks to everyone who has contributed to this discussion. We greatly appreciate the time and effort invested in commenting. The window for consultation is now closed and we are unable to accept any more comments until 18 July 2022. We will now analyse and interpret the new information, and we will post a preliminary decision on this species’ Red List status on this page on 18 July 2022, when discussions will re-open.
Based on available information, our preliminary proposal for the 2022.2 Red List would be to adopt the proposed classifications outlined in the initial forum discussion.
There is now a period for further comments until the final deadline on 24 July 2022, after which the recommended categorisations will be put forward to IUCN. The final 2022.2 Red List categories will be published on the BirdLife and IUCN websites in December 2022, following further checking of information relevant to the assessments by both BirdLife and IUCN.

Recommended categorisation to be put forward to IUCN
The final categorisation for this species has not changed. Cinnamon-banded Kingfisher is recommended to be listed as Least Concern.
