By commiting it, I meant commiting it as a contrib module. The fact is I control mainly the UIs, other modules could modify my terms without me knowing it. That's why I implement an "aggressive behavior" (enabled or disabled) which allow the hook to restore full last known term data when another module is modified it (understand when there is not the lock data into the $array value in the hook_taxonomy()). This module could be someway dangerous to use with intensive taxonomy modules, that's why I'm encapsulating all the settings in a 'per vocabulary' basis. But, I did some searches, I did not found such module, all taxonomy access modules are always per vocabulary based, or are just some tool to build strong node access rules, this is not why I needed. PS: I left some messages some days ago about a migration module, which I'm going to commit something like in one week (for people interested). Regards, Pierre.

I'm a bit curious about the way you were able to do this using hook_taxonomy() since that hook is always called after the fact, meaning any "locked" operation has already been committed to the DB once your code is called.
Whatever the implementation, though, I do not think this belongs in core: extra access control modules like this one (cck field perms or profile perms, for instance) are in contrib already.

Hi,
I'm doing a simple module that allow taxonomy term locking. By locking understand that it allow only users with a new permission to move or edit them, but all other terms remains still editable by anyone with the 'administer taxonomy' permission.
It uses the hook_taxonomy() and alter the main taxonomy term list overview to handle locked positions for some terms.
The goal of this module is to intensively use taxonomy_menu, but with finer permissions, and locked subtrees.
I looked up a bit on modules that exists, I did not found such module, the fact is we are going to use it for many projects.
Does anyone is interested in me commiting it on drupal.org?
Pierre.
