That's right and intended to prevent another agent compose an answer the
same time period you do. As soon as you express your opinion to work on
the ticket (ie. click on "Compose Empty Answer"), it gets locked.

If this were the way the agents want to wotrk - please do. Won't have
much to do with problem solving and will most certainly lead to
"discussion" in team meetings. ;)

To make life easier for the lazy-bones: Simply locking the ticket and
then changing the owner were enough - you're doing one click too much.

Everything will be noted in the history, though...

You didn't. Train your agents, I'd say.
