I think there is a value in letting people go as far as they can go without having to unlock, just so they have some idea on what to expect after they unlock (in this case, a person would know that they would be able to add/remove groups, and modify properties... but it isn't clear at all what these properties are). So if I were to continue this idea further, the list box would always be sensitive, and you would be able to get to the properties dialog for a group without unlocking. Just, the properties would be insensitive until unlocked (and there would be an unlock button here too). If the "Manage Groups" button was insensitive until the tool is unlocked, then it doesn't really communicate much, and I don't think that it is obvious what it even means to "Manage Groups".
