Hi, that's a smart idea. But you will also have to unlock automatically after having clicked on a customized "save" button, won't you ?

Of course, you need to be in a Seam context, that means that this chain will work if you bind it to a user action, and won't work if you bind it to an event listener (whose context has no notion of current tab in the interface).

To add a new button in the "edit" screen for saving, you can follow this how-to
