Please add ability to lock playlists to be able to prevent unintentional adding or deleting of songs in playlists.

As it is now, it is far too easy to delete and/or change a playlist unintentionally (even without being aware, since there are no warnings or notifying messages to user). The only way of knowing is to look at the top listing indicating number of songs in playlist and playlist total length.

This would be AMAZING! I constantly drag songs into the wrong playlists and, since Spotify is so social, it sends an update to all of the people following that playlist. It'd be really nice if we could just mark playlists as complete in some way and keep them from being arranged, added to, or subtracted from.

This toppic has been passing by so many times on this forum. I see no reason not to just add the option as it would have no negative effects of any kind. Leaving my playlist open on a party now often means i later on, or sometimes not at all, have to find out tracks are missing from my playlist. Very very annoying when you try to maintain a playlist
