I think it would be useful to be able to lock individual records and (separately) the entire database from an accidental modification. It would obviously require some changes to UI (main view would have to show a small lock icon or something like that for locked books to prevent confusion) but it would be a great help when sorting largish libraries. Locking the database could be done in two different ways: either by adding "locked" flag to the database or just by setting the UI state so it would affect any database - the difference from the user's perspective is not that big.
