Again, I'm not sure about this. A locked bitmap is unchanging. A frozen bitmap is split, and might change when the split is resolved, so we are correct that we cannot tolerate a frozen bitmap. But if locking were changed to a refcount instead of a bool, I don't see why we have to forbid a locked bitmap. Then again, as in 5/6, the user can work around this limitation by cloning a locked bitmap into an unlocked temporary one, where we are trading ease of maintenance for a bit more user effort.
