-- Natools.S_Expressions.Lockable provides an interface for Descriptor that --
-- can be locked in the current nesting level, returning End_Of_Input       --
-- instead of Close_List of that level. That way the descriptor can         --
-- be safely handed to other code fragments without risking scope change.   --
--                                                                          --
-- A Wrapper type is also provided to add a lockable layer on top of a      --
-- basic Descriptor interface, however with the extra overhead of one more  --
-- call.                                                                    --
