How about letting root delete files that are currently locked open on the NT-side like they can with NFS-locked files?
This is burt 8500. It is fixed in 6.1; in a unix qtree you now get this behavior which is characteristic of Unix semantics. In mixed and ntfs qtrees, NTFS locking semantics still apply.
