I've heard other reports of this on users@. But you're right, without a
repro recipe, it's hard to do anything.

As an aside, we should deprecate the "L" char and the "locked"
terminology, because it's incredibly confusing to users: they think it's
referring to our "locking" feature, which is, of course, totally
unrelated to this.
