That doesn't sound right, though I've seen issues with nested locks too.
What happens if you call this handler:
on unlockReally
repeat until the lockscreen is false
unlock screen
end repeat
end unlockReally

okay after some testing it seems only the script that locked the screen, maybe
only the actual handler can clear it's own lock. If this is not right I'd like
to know it. Seems there ought to be an unlock all command or some such thing.

Hi all.
I have some screen updates I do that take time because I query a database
first, and it may not be local. To keep the screen from progressively updating,
I lock the screen.
