Locking a morph

I know you can lock perameters so they can't be accidentally changed, but what about a morph or dial-spun character? Sometimes applying a pose messes or even erases the morphs and I'd like to prevent this because sometimes I don't even notice for some time.

One issue is that you may be setting the shape from one place but the actual shaping is being done by other morphs that are controlled by the master slider - if that's the case then locking the master slider won't stop other shapes from affecting the individual morphs, and locking them will stop the master shape from triggering them in the first place. That aside, poses should not in general saffect shaping so you could apply the pose preset then save it again using the option menu in the dialogue to set it to store Transforms only - that would, or should, give a clean version that didn't interfere with shaping.
Yeah, the problem is I don't know which poses are doing this as I usually try different poses until I get one that is close to what I want. Then start adjusting other things in the scene. When I think I'm done and take one last look, I realize something isn't right and see that my figure has changed LOL.
So far my solution has been to go back to an old scene before the character was changed and then merge to the 2 together, deleting all the double items, then copying the pose and position to the ooriginal figure, then deleting the messed up one.
