I find this report very clear (in both recipe and explaining motivation), but I'm struggling to understand some of the responses to it. Was it functionally necessary for the addition of lock file transforms to break the create-lockfiles nil case? If not, why isn't restoring the functionality being considered? Conceptually, it is hard for me to see why lockfiles (a system for detecting editing collisions between Emacs instances) should be tied up with detecting changes made outside of Emacs.
