Add dialog box when attempting to mass update locked items
P

When a user attempts to perform a mass update which includes locked project items in the selection set, the locked items are not updated and there is no indication that the operation failed. Potential solutions:
Good: Warning alerts the user that locked items are selected and will not be updated
Better: Dialog box gives the user the option to either unlock the items or proceed knowing they won't be updated
Best: Dialog box gives the user the option to unlock the items for that specific mass update operation, and then automatically lock them again after the operation is completed

I'm aware that unlocking items is permission-based. For the better & best options, add an indication on the dialog box that the user does not have permission to unlock or pop up a second dialog box indicating that the operation failed because the user doesn't have permission.
