And of course this is typical of YAGNI. What I should have said is that this is not only a "prospective feature"; I'm pretty sure it makes sense to prevent users from editing/deleting an object that's being edited. But it's obviously redundant with the whole "user deletes object X, all dialogs related to X are dismissed" approach. I just think the locking thing would be easier to implement, and *may* be of some use in the future. Cheers Jérôme
