In my opinion SELECT ... FOR UPDATE is already quite powerful to add locks. Might not be as good as a straight table lock, but gives you enough power to lock by rows (select some indexed columns, most dbs will lock only rows matching them) or select by a non indexed column which will probably end up in a whole table lock. As said above, dbs have many vendor specific lock types that might get quite complicated to abstract without limiting functionallity.
