Locked flow: Allow to view node content (readonly)

Core Development Feature Requests
1

When a flow is locked, then you cannot modify nor move any node. This is good.
But sometimes I need to check the content of a node. This is not possible.
I need to:

  1. Unlock the flow
  2. check the content of node I am interested in
  3. Lock the flow again

Could we get the possiblity to view the content of locked nodes?

It does seem reasonable to allow you to open a node's config read-only. I don't know how easy it would be to implement though.

Incidentally you can see the popup if a node's config contains a description, even on a locked flow. Not at flow level though, tabs don't display the "I have documentation" flag.

You can also select a node or nodes on a locked flow and copy to another tab, which will not be locked. (!)

Incidentally, there is no need to relock the flow if it hasn't been deployed.

Yes, but that way you have the risk of accidentily save an unlocked flow if you need to check some more stuff.
