I think thats a really bad idea.

It implies a process wide identity map for the separate lock at a
minimum, and raises IMO hairy questions - for instance, if I open a
write lock in one instance, create a new branch instance and take a read
lock, then close the first instances write lock and grab a new one -
should it succeed or fail?
