I wish there were some way to guage the experience factor with questions
like these. The question was the number of the locks. Many of the answers
seem to be applicable in general, like a tutorial on related topic, but miss
the primary question.

So how could there be a measure so if a newbie asks the question, then the
related items are helpful. But if an experienced person asks, the related
items are clutter.

Granted, many read the forums. It just appears that the slightest hint of a
topic brings a wide variety of responses.
