Fix the lock transformations in object properties

Hello. I've recently noticed that that the lock buttons in the object properties/transform tab don't actually lock the transformations.

See the attached video.

I first thought it was a bug and reported it here projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/123921 but it's actually a feature (thanks Andrea Lanaro for the link) : docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/scene_layout/object/properties/transforms.html

I think the UI team should have a look at this really weird feature and clarify things. As the locks are positioned like they are attached to the numerical value it's quite confusing. Lock buttons.png

As someone who hardly ever uses anything BUT these sliders, yes please.

When I lock a property, I expect it to be locked. It's not hard to unlock them to edit them, but its very hard to not accidentally edit them while they're locked...

I simply do not use these locks, because they literally do nothing for me.
