Which is exactly what I mentioned: you need to provide the information from the
action into the dialog.

And note the current logic: now the action checks if there is *any* locked
content affected by *any* operation; often it doesn't need to analyze
everything, and may break when encountered *the first* locked element affected.
What would need to be done is to analyze *everything* (to build the correct
context for the interaction), which would introduce this complexity into all
actions that could potentially give this warning; the analysis before the
interaction would take longer (for bigger selections). It might make sense,
though - but I don't think it's an easy change at all.
