can there be layers of linking?

i am working on an object with lots of primitives and it would be nice if i can link portions of the object and treat these guys like they are primitives. its really annoying having to zoom in and out and rotate the camera all over the place to find all those tiny primitives everytime i unlink the big object.

can "locking" the object prevent it from being unlinked? even after it becomes part of a bigger object?

if you lock a group and then try to link it to another group you will get a message telling you you cant link locked ojects.

I do agree though, layered linking would be a great feature.

It would certainly make it easier to sell more complex objects, that's for certain. Even one extra level of linking would be nice.
