Dialog boxes are not safe workflow. Browsers and computers still crash accidentally and deliberately. Somebody will bypass any interface-based process.
Point taken - but I think at the moment the javascript solution is a good pragmatic way to go.
The 1.3 specifications include no locks. Globally distributed applications cannot have any locking. Two people edit on one server, another is editing on another server, and a third is editing a local repository while disconnected from the network. Lenya cannot mature while using that obsolete paradigm.
I don't think that lenyas checkout/locking mechanism for a cms is an obsolete paradigm.
Checkout (Lock) informs editors working together on their site about other people working on the same document already. Working collaboratively on a website requires a lot of coordination (editorial work) - a single server providing information about who is doing what supports the team; lenya 2.0 helps with the features: notification, overviews for admin and checkout.
If two people accidentially work on the same document, they would have to merge their text somehow (a svn approach); this makes more sense for program code then for cms text (for program code it's difficult already...).
Disconnected work requires only a connection for the checkout / checkin; in between the offline work (in open office for example) is possible.
