What we normally advise is to lock things as you need them. Don't forget
that the TSVN context menus appear in the file/open dialog of most
applications too, so you can lock files just before you open them.

If you want to lock all the files, the only way is to select all first
and then get a lock.

You can still use hook scripts with file:// access, and the hook script
is executed by the client itself. Of course that means that whatever the
files/programs the hook script/batch file uses have to be available to
all the clients.
