Ability to restrict creating trace links only to artifacts in modules.

Inform users of locked artifacts in wizard prior to ReqIF import as this causes errors

It makes a lot more sense to prevent the ReqIF import, than allowing it to occur and forcing the customer to redo the import. The wizard should show all the locks that will affect the import and then stop the import. Otherwise customers need to do...

More finely grained application of Roles and Permissions for artifacts and associated attributes to protect content from "unauthorized" editing.

This would allow the protection of specific content in DNG to the benefit of the team members working in the tool. Protection of "Content" and attributes from inadvertant (or intentional) changes by "unauthorized" team members by role would be des...
