Would this question be more appropriate in the users mailing list, or
the dev mailing list?

I already have 2 threads going elsewhere on this subject --
        TortoiseSVN Users, "Feature / Bug - File lock icon, checking for
modifications"
And
        Subversion Users, "Repository file lock info in .svn/entries
file"

It turns out that the root cause of this problem (not displaying a lock
icon when some other user has a lock) is actually part of subversion --
Subversion does not cache the most recently known status of file locks.
This ability is critical for tortoisesvn to be able to display any such
information.
