interactive commands - show hidden, unlock, etc

I wish some menu commands like "show all hidden objects" and "unlock all locked objects" to be interactive. That means, if there is no hidden or locked objects, equal command should be grayed out - inactive.
- Also for save button in button bar. Should be grayed out - inactive if there is no changes for saving.

By the way. It would be nice, if the command "hide object" or "lock object" - could hide or lock selected group of objects that are not grouped.

Thank you and good nigth

Hi Ponny,
I'm using the OpenOffice Writer on this computer, instead of Word. And I've noticed that the Save button is grayed out if there is nothing new to be saved. Yes, that's kind of handy (I'm really forgetful, lol).

The others that you mention, I don't use much. But I wanted to mention, if you don't already know about it, Launchpad, Inkscape's bug tracker, and also the place to request new features. https://launchpad.net/inkscape You could search to learn if any of these have been officially requested, and if so, add your own "vote" (by clicking 'this affects me too' button).
