This is the only thing that seriously bugs me in REAPER. The only workaround I found is cutting the "locked" item and then pasting it back after doing edits in the timeline which is hardly an appropriate solution for a quality piece of software like REAPER.
I also have no idea who would want it the way it works now (locking stuff and still be able to edit it).
I wrote a lengthy mail to cockos about it - not sure they ever received it - and wanted to put up a feature request but never managed to do that.
