I noticed that locked objects can't be targeted like other prims anymore. When I leave the edit window open, I cannot switch between locked objects by left-click. Selecting multible locked objects with Ctrl+left-click or Shift+left-click is also impossible. And drawing a selection rectangle doesn't target locked objects as well.

Was it planned to work this way, as additional protection for locked prims?

/Edit: it is a lot of work now to move something complex, like a whole castle including furniture. The way it used to be, I could draw a selection rectangle and unlock all prims and linksets at once. Now every little poseball needs a right-click + "edit".

In the Tools menu, 3rd item down is "Select Only Movable Objects". This defaults to unchecked (the behavior you want) but can be checked (the behavior you are experiencing).

You should be able to uncheck this and have the behavior you want back.
