This is another request from someone I wrote up a long time ago.
It just allows topic creators, for topics in admin specifiable forums, to lock their created topic. Note, that they cannot lock the thread after it has been made.
Admins specify which forums by visiting AdminCP -> Configuration -> Settings -> Posting.
Not terribly sure where you'd use this, but I guess there may be some applications of this.
Note, this does temporarily "elevate" the user to a super moderator to get the "close this thread" checkbox to appear on the new thread page. It doesn't affect the actual posting routine however. Thus, this should have no adverse side effects, unless there is some plugin which exclusively relies on this value on the new thread page.
