Comment (by karmatosed):

 This question came up in the design chat and is really important to ask.
 Why are we adding this indication here? What importance does it have to
 the user at this point? What does it add to their use knowing this state
 here through the icon indication?

 Personally, I'm not convinced at this stage it does add anything or is
 important. I'm not sure what behaviour or process is improved or helped
 knowing it's locked.
