Good point.  There could be a security problem in telling a lock requester
the ID of a lock holder.  It would probably be sufficient, then, just
to tell the lock holder of the requested access, and give him the same
options I mentioned earlier;  the requester would simply be told to "Wait,
checking access. . ." (of course, he would abort if he decides not to wait).
