Bug Description
When opening a project on a windows UNC share, bzr explorer causes files in the directory to be locked for modification by other programs. The lock doesn't seem to be constant, as sometimes files will save after a ~30 second wait. As soon as you close bzr explorer, the file lock issue goes away.
This is an issue with both 1.2.1 and 1.2.0. I had to revert back to 1.1.4 to fix the problem.

I can't recreate this with samba on Linux but maybe Windows acts differently. It could be due to the file watcher although it seems strange that watching a file should cause it to be locked. If you wanted to check you could comment out the lines with QtCore. QFileSystemWatc her() in view_workingtree.py and view_repository.py
