I like ghudson's suggestion to make the read-only state depend on the
propsbase value of svn:needs-lock. This would mean that propset won't
touch the read-only state. My reasoning is that we don't need to protect
the users from themselves in this case, we want to protect users from
stepping on other users feet. So, svn:needs-lock only really takes effect
on commit.
BTW, have we specified if properties are made read-only if svn:needs-lock
is set, disallowing pset and pedit if needs-lock is set and the file is
not locked?

ONly if file is unlocked, ofcourse.
