I'm currently rewritting emacs-lock.el to make it cleaner and add some features inspired by Noah Friedman's protbuf.el; in particular, I want it to separate the two kind of lockings it conflates: locking against Emacs exiting, and locking against killing the buffer. (There will be one interface, `emacs-lock-mode', but you will be able to ask for either behavior or both, with a customizable default). The issue was briefly discussed long ago (there's a thread "emacs-lock enhancements" from 2009-09-22). I procratinated a bit ;-) and the sudden pretest announcement took me a bit by surprise. I expect to have a version ready to show and discuss in the next few days. In any case, the impact of my changes is minimal, affecting only emacs-lock.el, which does not seem to be a very used package at all. =C2=A0 =C2=A0 Juanma
