Locking Buffers - what can I do?

Does locking the buffer mean you can't use any Blitz3d commands such as CameraProject etc?
I thought it was just rendering commands (i.e ones that write or read pixel values to graphics buffers) that are affected...?

see here for why I'm asking

You can only use pixel reading and writing graphics commands when a buffer is locked. I'm pretty sure it says this clearly in the manual too ... that'd be a first ;)
