We just yesterday noticed, that a friend of mine had a Task open and saved it, after I added some content to it. We then noticed, that his saving of the old version has overwritten my progress.

Is there some Locking system planned, that blocks other users from editing content of a field/task? (Commenting should still be fine right?)

An alternative would also be just replacing the pencil with a lock icon and showing a tooltip.

Ideally you would be able to work simultaniously on the same task with auto-updates and such (And that's actually something I'd like to build at some point in the future).

I think locking or at least a notification, something like "this task is currently being edited by another user", would be a good addition.
This is a bit more complicated as it requires a bit more changes on the api-side.
