This sounds like a reasonable requirement to me, particularly if there are
existing "lock" operations supported by other openstack services.

We might consider making this a stack "action", e.g like suspend/resume -
actions are intended for stack-wide operations which affect the stack state
but not it's definition, so it seems like potentially a good fit.
