So cool - thanks, Momte!

Has there been any discussion of a possible enhancement to lockMessages, 
so we can lock all system message EXCEPT getProp and setProp?

I'd like to use those triggers, with since they're affected by 
lockMessages I can't use them for critical tasks except under very well 
defined circumstances.
