Description Peter 2021-04-26 10:41:38 UTC 
Description:
Don't know if this is a bug or a feature:
When leaving edit mode (Shift-Ctrl-M), the lock files aren't removed.



Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open an existing spreadsheet in Calc. (There are lock files created in the document's directory in order to prevent others to concurrently edit the document.)
2. Untick "Edit mode" in menu "Edit" (retranslated it on my own; the original texts in german Calc version are: menu "Bearbeiten", menu item "Bearbeitungsmodus", Control-Shift-M).

3.

Actual Results:
To my surprise, despite the read only mode seems to be successfully entered, the lock files still exist. (And they still seems to nag other users trying to edit.)


Expected Results:
The lock files should be removed, like if openend with ticked "Read only" ("Nur lesen") in open file requester.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Maybe it has something to do with https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137793 -- albeit this deals about handling a file which is marked as "please open read only", not manually switching to read only.
