yes, but that isn't a certain event that say that the data is locked!
also the network for example can determine different timeouts.
and also i don't know the working time for each request before.
that isn't a solution for me. i will open a "please wait, while the data
is locked" - window, if the data is locked.
and it seems as if this should be a problem with postgres :-(
