Thanks for the feedback.

Yeah that could be an issue for CheckRelationLockedByMe() (CheckRelationOidLockedByMe()
is too recent to be a concern).

Having said that 1. out of core could want to use CheckRelationOidLockedByMe() (
probably if it was already using CheckRelationLockedByMe()) and 2. I just
submitted a rebase for [1] in which I thought that using
CheckRelationOidLockedByMe() would be a good idea.

So I think that we can get rid of this proposal.
