Locked glyph can be changed via python script #1503

I noticed that a locked glyph can be changed via python code. I am wondering if this is the intended behaviour or not?

Missing some context. What kind of Python code?

Either way, the lock is just a light mechanism to prevent accidental editing. Scripting isn’t really in the scope of this feature.

Sorry for missing the context: I just noticed that I was able to change the glyph note of a locked character in the unittests (via python) and was wondering if this is intended behaviour or not?
