Comment (by adamsilverstein):

 Given our commitment to backwards compatibility, we may want to keep the
 post locking feature around even after collaborative editing ships.

 I'm curious how folks feel about post locking in a collaborative editing
 world...

 * Would some users still want post locking instead of collaborative
 editing?

 If we are planning to keep post locking as a feature for certain use cases
 we can probably leave this ticket open.
