When cloning and subsequently storing a locked ElementSet (e.g. All_Elements), the resulting Element Set is empty.
The reason is that locked Element Sets do not expose their element_labels (i.e., it is empty), as it is not editable.
Proposed resolution: return the filled element_labels from the API, but disallow changing them for locked objects.
Note that this behavior is different from the ACP GUI scripting, where the value is always [] (empty list). However, it would produce copy / paste behavior consistent with the GUI.
