I only follow the locking stuff sporadically, so whenever I try to
reason about lock behaviour I run into problems with what is
possible/allowed :)

In the mail here:

http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2005-02/0070.shtml

I was told that locks apply to pathnames and that locking schedule add
files should be possible, so just add "create file 'foo/bar'" before
the "lock 'foo/bar'" step.
