I've read the replies to vvanders and he's correct. With binaries you really want some sort of global locking (easy with a centralized system, hard with a distributed system).
I believe his (her?) point is that for a very large class of binaries there is just no upside in parallel development, one guy is going squash the other guy's work. You want to serialize those efforts.
We don't have global locks yet but we know how to do them, just waiting for the right sales prospect to "force" us to do them. I'm 90% sure we could add them to BK in about a week.
