Nicely said: no, we won't implement such a feature.
Not so nicely: if you would do that in our office, the rest of the devs
would simply kill you.

No seriously: you must only lock the files you want to edit. Otherwise
you block others from working on those files, and they won't take that
kindly. I can't believe that you really edit all files in a folder at
once...
