I think the Right Thing for handling locking would be to GET a URI
which conventionally represents a lock, and then be handed another
URI. When you DELETE that URI, the lock is released. We talk,
after all, of "getting" a lock.

To say that Bilbo's breath was taken away is no description at all. There
are no words left to express his staggerment, since Men changed the language
that they learned of elves in the days when all the world was wonderful.
