Sorry, IMO, this goes into a totally wrong direction, in particular, I
think that this is going to close to door to make --lockref the default
some day in a way that helps everyone.

I think I have not understood your motivations for this feature, and I
am not able spend more mindwidth on arguing back and forth to make it
more usable (again: IMO).

So, I bow out, and I appologize to have wasted so much of your time.
