Maybe some of you have spent time entering different content - text or images - into a frequently reused global and yet failed to unlink content in that global. Multiple other locations that have used that global change when that was not the desired effect. . I am wondering if there could be a way, on completion of a website, to turn every global into its own discrete grouping of elements and therefore not subject to any further changes (unless specifically dealing with that specific component).

I think being able to LOCK a global would achieve a similar thing. It would not be able to be modified unless it was unlocked.
